Week 12: Exemplification

On Monday 10th April 2017 

we learned about “Chapter 8: Exemplification”. So, this text was about species of whales so divided into toothed and baleen. And she taught us that when you read the text, you must look at keywords and discourse markers. Then, she gave us the corrective feedback about these activities.

Next, the teacher gave us a handout that was about exemplification. Then, she told us to read about exemplification. So, it made me know the purpose of exemplification that is adding more information to explain, persuade, define, or illustrate a general of the idea. While we were reading it, she searched the words for telling the meaning of them for us.

In my opinion, the article was not too long and the content was not boring. It was interesting because the vocabulary was not too difficult. With animal-related content this made me enjoy learning about it.
