Dear boys of 2D
This blogging adventure should be taking off by now. I hope to see real engagement with writing and more conscientious effort in using proper grammatical sentences, punctuation and spellings which are acceptable in this perfect English blog. Any language teacher can identify with me that it is a joy to see you learn and improve your expressions. Through the process of reading others' blog and writing comments, you will learn to be more critical a reader and writer. Knowing that you are publishing for a specific audience, you would be spending some time editing before publishing a piece of work, with pride.
Well, ironically, I have to emphasize that although this adventure will ultimately faciliate your language learning experience, I will be using it to assess your mastery of this genre - BLOG - as well as your linguistics spontaneity. Also, let me remind all that this CA assignment is primarily a NARRATIVE and not a random, mindless rattling of your personal emotions ( although Blog does have this element).
Hence, in your attempt to be spontaneous, please remember to align your story to :
1 Vivid characters and settings
2 Engaging plot; with a genuine(or realistic) complication
3 Sequential rising actions which lead appropriately to a climax
4 Well thought-through resolution (complimentary to the introduction)
Have said that, as you read others' narrative entry, do use these elements as a guide to make your comments on your friend's blog ( comment on the register no after you, eg, Reg 18 will post a comment on Reg 19).
FInally, please complete all the 3 entries latest by Sunday! INDICATE tasks clearly (CA 1 ENTRY 1 2 or 3 with its respective theme; eg. CA 1 Blog 1 - A moment I enjoyed). By 21st Jan, I will comment and give a score to each. This CA task.
Keep your posts coming. I welcome your feedback in my teaching and facilitation in your learning journey of the English Language.
