WRITING ACTIVITIES
1. INTRODUCTION
Definition
Writing involves putting down in a continuous set of sentences, ideas or feelings that are real or imagined. It is a means of recording events, common chores and incidents, which could be referred to in future. It involves a combination of many skills by the writer in order to make himself easily understood by the readers. It is putting our thoughts and experiences on paper or on board the way it should be, for others to read, understand and make responses.
It is a very difficult aspect of language learning because the writer might not be available to explain things that are not clear to the reader. Again, a writer cannot afford the impression of a speaker since he, unlike, the speaker, cannot use gestures to drive his point home because of the absence of a face-to-face situation.
