Basic Computer Course Format 3-Title
The Computer Club of SMK Kampung Lalang had organised a basic computer
course last Saturday, 14th May 2018. The course started at 8.00 a.m. until 1.30 p.m. It
was a 5 hours course with a 30-minute break at 10.00 a.m. Introduction
Body
The 25 members of The Computer Club from Form one to Form three gathered at the
Computer Laboratory at 7.45 a.m. They were required to pay RM3.00 for the food during the
break. The course instructor invited was Encik Aminuddin Bin Shahir from MRSM Lenggong
Perak.
Encik Aminuddin decided to teach the students the Java Programming because it is a
simple programme. He taught the students how to design a programme before they had to
do a presentation. The club members were divided into groups and then they had to design
a programme in two hours. They were asked to comment during the presentation
The course taught the club members to be creative and to cooperate with each other in
group. Many of the club members also requested the Computer Club to have another course
for this programming.
We thanked all club members for their support and hopefully we will have another course
for other club members from other forms. Closure

DIRECTED AND CONTINUOUS WIRITING _______________________________________ DESCRIPTIVE ESSAY
WHAT is Descriptive writing?
- Descriptive writing is to describe people, object, place, feeling and situation.
- It is like painting a picture.
- You will describe what you:
HEAR TOUCH
SEE
SMELL TASTE
- When you write a descriptive essay, remember to capture your reader’s
attention.
-
SHOW TELL
Tips on descriptive writing
i. Read and understand the instructions.
ii. Make a list of the events / incidents / others connect to the question.
iii. Brainstorm for main ideas. (3 main points)
iv. Add supporting details.(5WH-qs)
v. Brainstorm adjectives, adverbs, literary devices, idioms, similes.
- brainstorm words related to 5 senses
6
DIRECTED AND CONTINUOUS WIRITING _______________________________________ Look at these samples on descriptive essay:
Question:
Describe about yourself.
Read Sample One below:
My name is Dalilah Binti Anuar. I am seventeen years old. I live in Kampung Siputeh. I am
now studying in Form five at SMK Seri Putih. I love to eat kampong food. I also like to play
many games in the evening. One day I want to be a doctor to help my family.
(55 words)
- The essay describes about oneself but it is more to tell than to show.
- It is boring and too simple.
- Lack of adjectives and sensory words which bore the reader.
Read Sample Two:
I was born in a family of farmers where both my parents work hard to earn their living. As a
youngest in the family, I am not only been loved by them but also by my two other elder
brothers. Yes, I am the only girl and I was named as Dalilah Binti Anuar. As a student who
is going to sit for SPM this year, I know the important thing I should focus on is my studies.
Schooling is always fun and I love to be at school with my friends. We not only revise our
lesson or do our homework but also trying out new games in the evening at the new mini
stadium of SMK Seri Putih.
I stay with my family in a very peaceful village called Kampong Siputeh. My village has
many beautiful clear crystal rivers so it is normal for us the kampong girls to hang out during
weekends swimming or picnicking at the waterfall. Besides, you can still be able to feel the
cool breeze in the morning or been mesmerized with the lovely song made by the birds. That
is why I am always proud to call myself a kampong girl.
Though I love where I am staying now but I always want to pursue my studies overseas.
My passion is to be a doctor. Not only to help those who in need but also to ensure that they
will able to get the best treatment in my hospital which I dream to build one day.
(254 words)
- The essay gives you more input and it follows the tips given above right?
- It shows you who the person is rather than tells you about the person.
- It uses more adjectives than the first sample given.
- It touches on the five senses mentioned (sight, smell, touch, hear, taste)

Exercise 1A
Read the following text and answer the questions given
1 Describing Jeanie Lee as a woman of many talents would be understatement. All her life, Lee has thrown herself passionately into anything she put her mind to- and succeeded.
2 While many think being a wife, mother and restaurant operator is already having a lot on one’s plate, this is just the tip of the iceberg for the enterprising Lee. Among other things, she has, over the years, devoted her life to the pursuit of knowledge. Whether learning massage or traditional Chinese cooking to flower arrangement and food research, there is nothing that Jeanie has sought out to do and failed.
