Notice writing requires writing a notice (up to 50 words) for various purposes.
Detailed Explanation
Notice writing is a skill that involves creating a brief, concise announcement intended to convey information to a specific audience. It often serves purposes such as notifying about events, meetings, or important updates. The challenge is to condense the essential details while adhering to a strict word limit, typically within 50 words, ensuring clarity without overwhelming the reader.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine you are organizing a school meeting to discuss an upcoming event. You need to inform students and faculty about when and where it's happening. By writing a notice, you summarize all the essential details in a clear and straightforward manner, much like a headline in a newspaper that provides the most important information quickly.

Marks are allocated for correct format, relevant content, and accuracy of expression (grammar and spelling).
Detailed Explanation
Notices must follow a specific format to be effective. Key components include the heading ('NOTICE'), the date of issuance, the title or subject of the notice, the body containing relevant information (who, what, when, where), and the signature of the issuing authority. Additionally, attention to grammar and spelling is critical; errors can distract from the message and reduce the notice's professional quality.
Examples & Analogies
Think of a notice like a recipe. Just as a recipe requires specific ingredients in the right order to succeed, a notice must have all its parts clearly laid out in a logical sequence. If you skip the title or forget the date, just as leaving out sugar in a cake, it may not turn out as intended.
Choosing Topics for Notices

You will have a choice between two given questions.
Detailed Explanation
In exams, students are typically given two topics to choose from for their notice writing. This choice allows students to select a topic they feel more comfortable with or have better ideas for. Itβs essential to read both topics carefully and think about which one you can provide the most relevant information for, ensuring that your notice is informative and clear.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine you're at a cafΓ© looking at two different desserts. One is your favorite chocolate cake, and the other is a fruit tart youβre not very fond of. Naturally, youβd choose to write a review about the chocolate cake because itβs something you know well and can describe accurately. Similarly, picking a notice topic you're familiar with will help you write more confidently.
