PRESENTING THESIS STATEMENT

TUESDAY, 22/01/2013

Assalamualaikum…Today activity in our class is presenting the thesis statement. Miss Zu already gives much time since we have no class yesterday. The first couple who really brave to present is Faiz Adha and Fikri. *applause. Faiz and Fikri just did one thesis statement only but actually, Miss Zu asked us to do about three thesis statements. Miss Zu a bit angry about it. Miss Zu rejects their statement and Miss Zu asked them to do again. REJECT! The scariest word for today. Honestly, I am nervous to present today. We are too scare to be rejected. The second partner is Salihin and Mida a.k.a Faiz…hahah .First, they show their introduction. Since my partner and I also did same type of essay with this partner so, we are looking forward to this couple. We want to know how they do the thesis statement. They thesis statement has be approved. You guys are lucky BUT not for their introduction. Miss Zu ask them to change it because the introduction is not suitable with the thesis statement. PLAGIARISM! Miss Zu said. Then, they called Acap’s name. Acap and Nawi suppose to present their thesis statement but I don’t really know what is exactly happen to them. Emmm…Next presenters would be Pika’s group. Miss Zu does not accept their thesis statement. Until Ieka and Diba turn, Miss Zu was very happy with them because they are the best group for today. Great thesis statement and no grammatical error at all...*applause…  When is my turn? Hahahahah… Before we are presenting our thesis there  are some group which already know that they did in a wrong way with their thesis statement so, Miss Zu tell them to sit together with the group which did the same type of essay for tomorrow class. My turn guys. I think for my group, we did a nice work. Miss Zu said that our thesis statement is okay just to need add something so it will be better. After we end present it, our class dismiss with a deal to Miss Zu that we have to be at library for tomorrow class although she is not there. You can trust us miss. Don’t worry!

My group thesis statement that Miss Zu accept:      

   The family problems, the student’s behavior and the school environment are some of the reasons why academic performance is decreasing among the secondary school students. For this reason, some solutions should be taken to solve this problem.

MAKE AN INTRODUCTION FOR TERM PAPER...

WEDNESDAY, 16/01/2012

Assalamualaikum. Today our class as usual at computer lab. Today, Miss Zu teaches us about the introduction of an essay. What is introduction all about? Let me tell you guys. The functions of introduction are:

   1) Get the readers’ attention

   2) It supplies background information needed to understand the essay.

   3)Set tone for the rest of the essay

Miss Zu also told that in the introduction, we must 3 parts, which are the hook, transition and thesis statement. What is the meaning of “the hook”? The hook means designed to grab attention immediately and give some indication about the essay topic. What about the transition?  What it’s mean? Transition means Moves the reader from the hook to the driving force of the essay. To make a hook we have 8 patterns to make it:

   a)  Personal example/observation

   b) Current event

   c) Quotation

   d)  Facts & statistic

   e) Rhetorical question

   f) Definition

  g) Funnel

  h) Contrast to the thesis statement.

Then, Miss Zu asked us to the introduction for our term paper. Our class dismiss at 6 o’clock. BYE Guys!

THESIS STATEMENT?

TUESDAY, 15/01/2013

Assalamualaikum, today we are late!  All the students were late for the BEL 311’S class. You guys curious why? Because before that we have QMT, class and we have quiz. That’s why we were late. When we come into the class Miss Zu already there. All right, straight to the point guys, since we already have the title for the term paper, so, today we learn about “how to make the thesis statement”. What is means by thesis statement? Thesis statement is the preview of main point to whole essay.After that, she shows to us the last semester students’ work as references to us. Then, we have to make three versions of thesis statements because she said if one of it does not accepted, at least we still have the back up. After that, Miss Zu asked about what pattern of essay that we want to choose. Since, Wawa(my partner) is absent today, so, at this moment I more prefer  pattern  number 2 because it’s looks more straight forward for me and not complicated. Besides that, Miss Zu talks about a little bit about introduction. For the introduction, we must have 3 part, which are the hook, the transition and lastly thesis statement. Below is the essay pattern that I mention above :)

       

     PATTERN 2

Introductory 

paragraph           = Introduction stating the thesis statement

Body paragraph = Problem 1, with topic sentence    

                               Solution 1, with topic sentence

                               Problem 2, with topic sentence

                               Solution 2, with topic sentence

                               Problem 3, with topic sentence

                               Solution 3, with topic sentence

Concluding 

paragraph         =  Conclusion summarising the main ideas or restating the thesis statement

DEBATE!

MONDAY,14/01/2012

Assalamualaikum, the new day after weekend. Today, our class at DSP. For today class, we did something that new for this semester, which is DEBATE. Firstly, we are divided into 4 groups, which are 2 from the Government side, and the other two are from the opponent side. For the first session, we have group 1 and 2. They were debating about “Is it considers cheating when your partner (girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife) was checking on other beautiful girls/boys/man/women/ on facebook (poking, liking, etc)”. The debating session was going smoothly. They were giving their great point and refute to each other points between the Government and the opponent side. As an audience at that time, I can see their tenseness on their face clearly. Miss Zu asked us (an audience) to decide which groups will win and who the best debater is. My group chooses the opponent side as the winner and Fikri as the best debater. The second session is my group and one more group. Our topic is “Is it true that men are easy to work with and more creative than women especially when it involves group work?”  In addition, we are the opponent side. Miss Zu also helps us in giving the points and it helpful for us. We done our best, we refute each other. Hahahahah…. For the second session, no one win or loss it is a tie and the best debater is Rozita from my group. Yeahhhhh... Congratulation my friend! Class dismissed at 4 o’clock. See you guys on the next entry. ADIOS! 

the first session.. can you guys the tension on Fikri face?
