Dear Taj,
I hope you are feeling great. I am writing
this
letter to invite you to a birthday party of our friend Jaideep which is going to be held this
weekend. As you know, he is from Singapore and he is living away from their family. Therefore
, I plan to give a surprise celebration to him which will make him happy.
Firstly
, there is an Italian restaurant near to our school and I have gone there several times. The venue is at this
restaurant on 29th December at 7 pm. Secondly
, the food was very delicious which felt like a home dinner as he likes pizza and sandwiches. In addition
, we will play video games after dinner and enjoy dancing to our favourite music.
Therefore
, you will come one hour ahead so that we can make a handmade gift for Jaideep. Moreover
, please bring your colours so that we can make a birthday card as you are very good at drawing. We will meet at the party.
Warm wishes,
LoveSubmitted by tajinder.panag on

Coherence and Cohesion
Ensure that each paragraph presents a single clear idea. While you've made a good attempt, the second paragraph could be split to separate the details of the venue from the plans at the party for greater clarity.
Task Achievement
The response completes the task with relevant details about the reason for the party, the date and time, and suggestions for what to bring. To improve, make sure to create a more explicit invitation and use bullet points or enumeration to present details in a clearer, more organized manner, which is expected at higher band levels.
