Learning Log 6
I learnt that literary devices means moves that a writer might make that are defined not so much by functional or descriptive actions as by imitation and repeated use by many authors at that times. I feel that each and every literary devices are unique and different in their own way! After we had learnt on identify literary devices, we were taught to spot them out in unseen poems and prose. Also to state the hidden meaning about what the writer wanted to imply to the readers. Although these have no definite answers, we have to explain as close to the meaning to get the mark! I like the word Hyperbole the most as it means exaggeration used to evoked strong feelings or creating a impression which is not meant to be taken literally. I feel that this literary devices are usually used in plays during the Shakespeare period! For me, it is hard to understand literary devices because i also cannot understand what the writer wants to imply! However, the lesson was meaning and learning these literary devices can widen our limited vocabulary. I would try my very best to learn them and i hope the lessons would be enjoyable and easy to understand!

Learning Log 5
I learnt that actually unseen poem is quite easy to do! As long as we allow our feelings to flow through our mind so that we can experience and feel what is the writer trying to tell his or her readers. We have to read the poem or passage carefully and most importantly, use our words whenver possible! When approaching a unseen poem or passage, we have to read it swiflty so we can get a idea of what happen! To organise answers, if it is short, we just have to get it straight to the point! If it is an essay, we just have to give a brief context to the point for the introduction. For the body, edvidence is the most vital! Without edvidence, we do not have points to expand our introduction. For conclusion, we have to rewrite what is the points agains so as to remind the readers, thus giving them a conclusion. It is best to quote from the passage as it appeals more to the readers!
