    ACTIVITY

    Some words are fine for informal conversations and discussions. For formal writing, however,
    they should not be used.

    Her dad worked at a factory. Her father worked at a factory.
    The word dad makes it sound informal. Father is a better word to use informal writing.
    Below are sentences that have informal words in them. Circle the informal word or words and
    rewrite the sentence in a formal style.

    1) They bought an awesome house around the corner.


    ________________________________________________________________________

    3) Jane ain’t going to tell anyone.
