Directed Writing

Directed writing can be tricky. The trick here is: READ. READ THE FRICKIN GODDAMN QUESTION. Seriously. Kalo lu liat disuruh bikin letter, throughout the writing process, INGET. SELALU INGET. LU TULIS SURAT. Imagine what you would write if you were writing that letter. Imagine if you are writing the letter. Misalnya lu mo nulis ke principal. BE MINDFUL OF THE LANGUAGE. jgn ngomong hey man im sorry okay i didnt mean to cheat. Ngomongnya misalnya, "Sir, I did not mean to cheat." Kalo formal letter: be polite.

Don't use contracted forms if you can (he's, she's, they're, I'm, can't, won't). Kalo bisa yg biasa. They are, she is, he is, etc.

Pokoknya directed writing: REMEMBER YOUR AUDIENCE, so, REMEMBER YOUR LANGUAGE. Sehabis itu, REMEMBER, YOU NEED TO TAKE REFERENCE FROM THE TEXT. Kalaupun textnya jelek abis, ga bisa dipake, INCLUDE. I don't care how you do it, pokoknya masukin aja, asal relevant.

Directed writing main points:

1. Language. Sense of audience. Bikin org ngerasa kalo misalnya lu disuruh tulis surat ke nyokap, it feels like a real one. Kalo misalnya disuru bikin ke temen baik, bikin kyk lu bener2 nulis ke temen baik lu.

2. Text. Inget inget musti masukin text.

3. Format. Kalo letter bikin kyk letter. Kalo speech bikin kyk org lagi ngomong speech, jgn kyk narative. Diinget karena ini jg penting.

4. COMMON SENSE. Logic. Don't put ridiculous things.
