--not a statement about the future..
e.g. : Adele is a singer.

A opinion is : 
--is a statement that cannot be proved to be true or false..
--is one's personal belief, idea, or feeling about a subject..
--can be statement about the future..
e.g. : Adele is the great singer in the world.

After that,we divided into 5 groups. Each group must present and promote their product and state 10 statement consists of facts and opinions..
And the other groups must identify which is facts and opinions in the statement..
It really exciting activity right..:)

A pronoun can replace a noun or another pronoun..You use pronouns like 'he','which',and 'you' to make your sentences less repititive..

Type of pronouns:
a) personal pronouns : used to replace nouns as subjects of sentence.
                                  e.g. : Amir Idris and Azmi are from Melaka.(They are from Melaka.)
b) reflexive pronouns : used to intensify and also reflect antecedents.
                                  e.g. : PM Zain himself conducts the seminar.(intensifies antecedent)
                                          PM Zain conducts the seminar himself.(reflects antecendent)
c) relative pronouns : used to join one phrase to other phrase.
                                e.g. : The talk on self-development that was attended by many participants was a   
                                        great success
d) interrogative pronouns : form the questions.
                                         e.g : How do you manage yourself?

Reading

WEDNESDAY~04/01/12


Today,Miss Zu taught us how to find main ideas..

WHAT IS MAIN IDEA??
Main idea is the thought that is present from the beginning to the end.

HOW TO FIND MAIN IDEA??
Ask yourself these
-what idea is common to most of the text??
-what is the idea that relates the parts to the whole??
-what opinion do all the parts support??

First step to find the main idea,you must look to the topic sentences of each paragraph..
Then understand the supporting details..
TIPS!!
Topic sentences USUALLY at the first sentence in the paragraph...
Search it carefully and you will find it..:)

Fourth Week

WEDNESDAY~21/12/11


Today task is very excited..
Why??
Because Miss Zu want us to create a poem...
WHAT??!!!I'm totally blank for a while...Yeaa I'm not A.Samad Said,who is the famous Malaysian poet and novelist...
But,I give a try..
The theme of the poem is 'I think I can'

I know I am just nobody,
I know I am just ordinary,
I know I am not Prime Minister,
I know I am not genius,
because,
I am just regular student,
I am trying to know the world,
through,
UiTM Segamat,
the places that i learned about life..


Through this places,
what is cannot become can,
what is impossible become possible,
what is difficult become easy,
from nobody become somebody..


From now on,
I think I can be extraordinary,
I think I can be Prime Minister,
I think I can be genius,
And
from this moment,
I think I can do everything in this world..

So,that my poem..I know I'm bad poet,not as good as A. Samad Said..
But,at least I try to create right..:)
