Learning Log 1

Dear Mrs Woo

I enjoyed the lesson on "cinquain" in which I had learnt to write a cinquain poem and felt that it is a unique style of literature writing. Not only had I learn how to use different narrative to describe an object, but also got to 'discover' myself through writing this poem.

I particularly enjoy the explanation that the word "cinquain" derives from a Greek word meaning - a poem consisting of five lines.

I would like to share my thoughts and give suggestions in which how future lesson could be further improve.

-The lesson may be carried out in a form of a video presentation whereby other samples of conquain poetry are shown.

-The class should involve in more group activities. As the saying goes:"Two heads are better than one". By doing more grouo activities, we could also learn more from each other.

-Lessons would definitely be more interesting if there were more interaction between you and the designated groups. (By attending to each group during group discussions)
