Today class Miss Zu taught us about author purpose and tone. There are
many purposes for an author’s writing such as they want to inform, to perform a
task, to sell, to inspire, to correct a misunderstanding, to show differing
point of view, to review a film and last but not least to review a book. There are
important reasons for author’s to write which are to entertain (tells a story
that describes something or someone in an interesting way), to instruct (explain
or teach something in the story that the reader does not know, the author provide
knowledge to the reader), to persuade (tries to change our opinion on a topic
by appealing to our emotions) and to describe (to support other purposes in
writing. They use it to create a character, set a mood or envision a scene). By
knowing the author purpose, you will prepare your mind for the type of
information in the reading; make the article easier to summarize and to make it
easier for you to discriminate between the article’s main idea and important
details. For tone the writer’s use of words and writing styles to demonstrate
his or her stand towards the issue. There are a few example of tone such us
indignant, evasive, incredulous, optimistic, pessimistic, mocking, malicious,
compassionate, cynical and bitter. That’s from me for today…

For today class we were back to grammar presentation. Today groups that
will present are Syahira group and Adli group. After finish present, they had
prepared a game for us. Even the game was simple but it was an interesting
game. We must form 2 circles to play the game. The game was likely a musical
chair, but for this game they will play a song and after the song is stop for a
while, one person will be chosen to answer the question on the notepad. The two
groups got the same mark, and then Syahira ask for a representative for each
group to write a sentence about what they have presented. The other group had
not prepared a game or questions. But as long as we can understand what they
have present it will be ok. That’s all from me for today…

Today class is the replacement class for Friday class on 8th
March 2013. For today class Miss Zu had taught us about an argumentative essay.
To write an introduction for argumentative essay, you must introduce the topic
with general statement, state why it is important, state there is a difference
of opinion about this topic and the thesis statement must state what your claim
is and can include the “parts” of the argument you are going to state. The body
paragraph was the same as the previous essay, but for the conclusion we must
restate the main claim, present one or two general sentences, and provide a
general warning of the consequences. That’s all from me for today…

For today class Miss Zu had taught us about drawing conclusion. Drawing
conclusions is a form of critical thinking. It is relating what you see, hear
and read to what you already know. When draw a conclusion, you use all the
facts that you can find in the passage to help you deduce or figure out what
you do not know. There are some expressions that point to a conclusion such as thus,
it is believed that, in fact/because of this, it follows that, it concludes
that, as a result, therefore, we can deduce that, points to the fact that, and
lust but not least prove that. That’s all from me for today…
