Slight Similarity..


This reflection  is about two-day meeting in this week.
Our activity in last Wednesday was correcting our description paragraph which we have made by self. We worked in pairs. I have just made my paragraph the night in advance. I imagined the situation in orientation day when made it. The ceremony, the committee, the atmosphere, and everything happened at that time. Actually something I want to emphasize was how terrible the event was, but I wrote the setting in my paragraph. Finally when I read it firstly, I think it was almost narrative. So did my partner who corrected my paragraph, she became confused when read my writing (sorry to my partner Nur Kholishoh ;) ). Beside that the main idea I want to show could not be understood easily because I also confused when I put it in my paragraph.
In Friday meeting we had presentation. The paragraphs presented were contrast, comparative, definition, proses analysis, and explanation. Some paragraphs were clear and not difficult to be classified. We found some disagreement when we tried to identify Fia’s paragraph and Diny’s paragraph. Fia’s paragraph was explain about something depend on the writer’s mind. She called it as argument paragraph while some of us said it was explanation or definition. Later we agree that it was explanation because definition never explain something only depends on someone’s mind. Diny’s paragraph looks like classification in first sentence and like proses analysis in the following sentences. Her paragraph was contain steps about how to do something but seems like classify some kinds of skills which we have to master when we practice diving. Then we made a conclusion that her paragraph was a proses analysis paragraph. From that discussion I knew that some paragraph have slight similarity. Thus we must be aware when analyze those kinds of paragraph.

  2. I just think that you give me an exercise to distinguish between narrative and description. And from your text I realized that I'm still confused to distinguish them. Thanks for your text,,,,
    If you made a simple paragraph for that meeting, maybe I have nothing to learn...
    Once more, thank you so much @_@
