This is your introduction paragraph. You should have a controlling idea or focus throughout this paragraph and the letter. You should tell the person who you are and what your expertise is. You should also tell the person where Fugawiland is, a little about the area’s geography and how many years you have been excavating the area.

Your next paragraph should be about what you have found. Tell the reader how many sites have been excavated, and how you chose those sites. Use transition words to link your ideas together. Give them some brief details about the research that you are doing in Fugawiland. Briefly tell the reader what you find interesting about your research, and some problems you have encountered. Use specific nouns, strong verbs and vivid adjectives to describe your experiences and artifacts.
