Dear 3/1,
This week, we looked at "Revive Courtesy Drive - We need it" article and discussed if there is a need to teach Singaporeans how to be gracious."
Your tasks this week include:
1. 1st Reflection
- Based on the videos/ articles we shared in class, discuss your views/opinion on the concept of graciousness.
- Individual, no less than 100 words
Due: IMMEDIATE
2. 2nd Reflection
- "There is a need to teach Singaporeans how to be gracious." Do you agree?
- Include your introductory paragraph for essay (if you wish, so that I can check for you)
- Individual, no less than 100 words
Due: Sunday, 2 Aug 2009, 5pm
2. Argumentative Essay
- "There is a need to teach Singaporeans how to be gracious." Discuss.
- Individual, 350-500 words, written on foolscap, leave a space after every line
Due: Monday, 3 Aug 2009, 8am (Late submission will be subjected to marks penalty.)
- For those of you who posted intro:
By and large, beginning with the definition of graciousness and background of Singapore are all fine.
Just be mindful that if you state a strong stand right from the beginning, and subsequently attempt to convince your stand, it becomes persuasive rather than discussion. It will become OUT OF POINT.
Use your time wisely; workload will start getting heavier next week.
Have a restful weekend.
Cheers,
Ms Raine

cher how to pass up on Sunday?
ReplyDeleteapologies, essay should be due mon. thks for pointing out the mistake.
ReplyDeleteMs. Raine, can we send the Argumentative Essay in MS Word or e-mail instead?
ReplyDeleteSince the reflections are in blogs already, might as well make everything in computer, save paper, save money, save the Earth! xD
Not to mention, computerized writings are legible while some people have illegible handwriting so it's easier for you to read.
