The students will practice writing letters formally by writing
dear ..... and informally. One day they practice letter writing as
Goldilock's post reading activity to write apology letter for the
three bears.
This is formal social writing because it has "dear" at the
beginning. The students practice this type of writing with
knowing the basic elements that should be in invented card such
as time, day and date.
This is real type of writing.
The students practiced writing the main information about the
daynasor.

4. Imagination writing

Poem is a genre that has repetitive phrases or sounds. The

students can turn the poem to lovely songs. I observed some
students love to write poem so the teacher encourage them to
write the poem and present them in front of the class as a song.
The students imagine that they are in some situation so they will
write what think might happen or what they will do to act with
this situation.

object and end his/her sentence with appropriate punctuation.
Related to lower and upper case, she/he can form the most of the letter
correctly. However, all the letters were written at same portion. The student
also almost mastering the phonological awareness by writing all the words
right as he/she hear them accept "parrot "word.
