A Fun Way to Learn Reading

A Fun Way to Learn Reading

Not always, learning English (especially reading) is boring. Mr. Vilya proved it. On September 26, 2018, Mr. Vilya taught us in a class about narrative text. Before that day, Mr Vilya divided his students into some groups. Each group must make a poster describing the story determined by Mr. Vilya. Each group got a different story.

On September 26, 2018, each group must present the results of their poster to Mr. Vilya. Apparently, all the posters made by each group are very interesting. One of them belongs to group 6, which consists of Ulya, Arynaa, Izmi, and Ata.

Group 6 got a story titled "The Tell-Tale Heart". This story told of someone who killed an old man, because the perpetrator was upset with the old man's eyes. The perpetrator then hid the old man's body under the floor board. At the end of the story, the perpetrator confessed his crime to the police.

Group 6 made their posters with the following steps:
1. Determine the shape of the poster
2. Looking for references on the internet
3. Voting references that will be used
4. Combining agreed references
5. Make a rough sketch on the poster
6. Thickened poster sketch (tool: drawing pen and marker)
7. Coloring (tools: crayon, colored pencils, and watercolors)

Mr Vilya gave a number of questions to group 6. Among them:
1. What is the title of the story?
Answer: The Tell-Tale Heart.
2. Who is the author?
Answer: Edgar Allan
3. Who designed and colored the picture?
Answer: Arynaa
4. Can you tell me the conflict?
Answer: when the offender felt annoyed with the eyes of an old man
5. Where was the setting?
Answer: in the old man’s room
6. How long do you need to finish reading this story?
Answer: an hour
7. Do you find any moral value?
Answer: “Nervousness can’t be hiding. All bad things you did will be exposed.”
8. What coloring did you use?
Answer: crayon, colored pencils, and watercolors

With this method, students can express their ideas and creativity. The students also will not feel bored when they study English (especially reading). It is expected that students can understand what they are reading.

Moral Value of The Magic Shop By H.G Wells

The short story titled The magic shop by H.G Wells is an interesting fiction story. This story tells a lot of unique new things. Besides the interesting things I also found moral values like: 1. The intelligent parents will understand how to protect and give everything what their son need. 2. Always listen to exprert. They will tell You what can't be done and why then do it. 3. Every human being has a mind that can develop imagination even sometimes beyond reason. By: Febiana Kusumastuti/183211047

The Moral Values of RIP Van Winkle By : Washington Irving The moral values that I have seen from 'Rip Van Winkle story is that time goes on and things keep changing whether a person is there or not. In the story, Rip takes a 21 year nap, but time does not stop the world keeps changing. Even though Rip is not aware of all of the changes going on, its still happen. When he awakes, Rip finds that there are some changes that he likes. For example, when he was going to the place where there had been a school and asked the crowd that had gathered and somebody said that everything had changed and finally he found his daughter. There were also some changes he didn't like, such as his dog getting older and his children growing up although Rip Van Winkle had been upset because he missed many important events. So the moral of the story is time does not wait the world will keep moving forward and changing . These things will happen even if someone is not ready for them! Ot...

B. 24

SYAHRUL MUKAROM 183211051 b.24 My opinion about the story is short tittle and very simple, but difficult to understanding it. I don’t know about a reason of the author to give tittle “b24”. This is make the reader ask about it, and make the story very interesting. The reader must know that we can take many moral messages from the story. About the law, injustice, and the rich. The parcipants of the story are Thief as suspected, Lady Mannering as a murderer, lord mannering as victim, and judge.       About the thief, although he was thief  because he have one reason and direction to do it. To continue he life, he have not the work that time. He just thief not the other.      At the assembly the thief tell about the event step by step, one by one, but no one was listened and the judge not believed about explanation him, still to accused that murderer is him.      From the story we must know about injustice from the law. “blunt above,...
