A Discourse Approach in Reading week6










9 February 2016 




 DESCRIPTIVE (CONTINUE...) 



Hello, guys? How have you been today? For me, It seems I have cold because the weather has changed suddenly about 15 degree Celsius so I and my friends put on warm clothes to study in the class.




Today, I and my friends studied about describing. We had to read the texts from the hand out which consists of Budapest, Prague and Describing of People.


Before we started reading the text, the teacher answered the exercise B on page 23 which is to match each word with the correct meaning. The words from this exercise are related with the Komodo Dragon which we had already studied since last week.


When she had answered the exercise already, we started reading the text 2 which is Budapest suddenly. The text is about describing Prague and its tourists attractions what they look like. In pest, There are many attractive places to visit e.g., Baroque Architecture, Fascinating Museums or Millennium Monument. In contrast, In Buda, There are also many attractive places to visit e.g., Buda castle, The Citadel on hilltop sites, National Library, The castle Museum and The national Gallery. 


If you have vacation in Budapest on St. Stephen's Day, you can witness the stunning firework display which is held on the Citadel

Later, we had to answer the question. Then, we had to underline adjectives that attribute the places. Some of them I didn't know about their meaning. So I found the meaning from Oxford dictionary online with pronouncing them suddenly.


Next, we read the text 3 which is Prague. This text makes me want to go Prague because it has wonderful places that I really want to go there such as Old Town Square, Prague Castle and Charles Bridge. When I had read it already, the teacher responded the questions by asking us about the answers. We got correct of all the questions so we were happy. Because we could understand the text clearly.

Later, we read about describing people who are Bert and Doris. We had to read and underline the adjectives that contribute their appearances and characters. When I had read it already, I drew the pictures that are Bert and Doris with their appearances and characters. It makes me understand how they are and look like.








Here is the pictures related with Bert and Doris's appearances and characters

When we finished reading already, the teacher assigned us work in group in order to describe things. We had to draw lots. My group got "Animal" so our group needed to describe about animal.


Our group conferred about describing animal. We chose "Lion" to describe it. I would like to show you about our work when we had done it already. 






From this activity, I love it because we conferred about describing Lion. We shared ideas together. It makes me love working in group a lot. Everyone did it willingly and they seemed happy with doing it.






 News of this week 



Global Warming Highlights Need for Risk Map



 


 What did you get from this news? 


I also knew that Thailand is no longer considered a natural safe zone and it needs a better risk map for its disaster preparedness. Because Areas prone to earthquakes can be identified by a risk map. But it costs a considerable amount of money to produce a risk map.

 It's time to ask question 



 What did you learn today?


I read the texts which are "Prague, Budapest, Describing people", did exercises and did activity in the classroom








 What did you find easy?


In my opinion, the adjectives that contribute the things are easy for me. Because I can identify what part of speech. So I can guess the words what they are look like.








 What did you find difficult?


In my opinion, some adjectives are unfamiliar so I can't know them exactly. 






 What did you solve the problem?


When I see unfamiliar words, I will find their meanings after I finish reading the text. Then, I will pronounce those words and jot them down on my notebook. 







 What are your attitudes towards the lesson?


I think that this lesson is quite challenging. We should know a lots of vocabularies by reading more. If we have them a lot, we can understand exactly what the things are look like. So "Practice makes perfect"
