English. 29th September 2011.

Dear Parents,

Today we did a composition practice in class, incident being a fire at home. We will be doing more composition practices in the run-up to the exams to get the boys used to writing under the time limit of 45 minutes, as well as to brush up on their writing style.

As a guide, I have informed the boys to write four paragraphs - one for each picture - with each paragraph having a minimum of four sentences. That should allow them to sufficiently cover all the points. Typically, the first picture would reflect the setting - who, where when. As the body is the main focus of the story, I have allocated two paragraphs to it. Pupils may end the story by explaining what happens in the end and if they wish, include a lesson to be learnt.

There is no homework for today. Spelling tomorrow is for Unit 17.1.

That's all.

Best,
Miss Nurul
