You may start writing sentences about the people in a picture. To do so, you may use the sentence structure below:
‘There is’ and ‘There are’ can be roughly translated as ‘Ada’ in Bahasa Melayu.
‘There is’ - singular. ‘There are’ - plural.
Example:
1.There are many children in the picture.
2. There are four women in the picture.
3. There are two men in the picture.

20 Pre-Writing 2: Formula TiTa
People, objects, plants, animals, transport, fruits and vegetables, food and drinks are classified under the part of speech that is called Nouns. We have learned that nouns can be singular or plural.
We can use the structure ‘There is’ and ‘There are’ to write sentences about nouns. Let’s call the structure Formula TiTa.
Example:
1.There is a woman in the picture. 2. There are two boys in the picture. 3. There is a girl in the picture. 4. There is a baby in the picture. 5. There are four men in the picture. 6. There is a boat in the picture.
7. There are three chickens in the picture. 8. There is a box in the picture.
9. There are two rolls of mats in the picture.
21 Let’s try to write!
Write as many sentences as you can for the pictures below, using Formula TiTa. Write the sentences in your exercise book.
Picture 1 Picture 4
Picture 2 Picture 5
Include the names of places in your sentences to make them more interesting. For example, instead of writing ‘There are many children in the picture,’ you may write ‘There are many children at the playground.”
Reinforcement: Redo the exercise on page 21. Change ‘in the picture’ to names of places according to the picture.
Extra activity: Find more verbs / actions. You can use the picture dictionary. Write the verbs / actions in your vocabulary book together with their meanings in
Pre-Writing 3: Formula S-V-W
A boy is holding a ball.
An old man is reading newspaper.
Four women are sitting on the bench.
Several girls are running.
An old woman is holding a cat.
30
Before we start writing, let’s practice some basic grammar items first.
I. Articles: a,
an Notes:
The article ‘a’ and ‘an’ means ‘one’.
The article ‘a’ is placed before a word that starts with the consonant sound. Example: a boy, a girl, a cat, a rabbit
The article ‘an’ is placed before a word that starts with the vowel sound. Example: an old man, an old woman, an orange, an apple
Exercise: Fill in the blanks with ‘a’ or ‘an’.
31 II. Be Verb
Examples of be verbs are ‘is’ and ‘are’.
The verb ‘is’ is placed after a singular subject. Example: A boy is playing football.
The verb ‘are’ is placed after a plural subject. Example: Several boys are playing football.
Exercise: Fill in the blanks with ‘is’ or ‘are’.
III. Verb + ing
We add the suffix ‘-ing’ to root verbs when we want to write sentences using Continuous Tense. When the verbs with the suffix ‘-ing’ is put after the ‘be verbs’ (‘is’ or ‘are’), it will become Present Continuous Tense.
When do we use Present Continuous Tense? We use Present Continuous Tense when we want to write about something that is happening now, at this moment.
It is best to use Present Continuous Tense when writing sentences for Section A of UPSR Paper 2.
For most verbs, we can directly add the suffix ‘-ing’ at the end. Examples: play – playing, read – readi n g , sleep – sleeping
For verbs that end with the letter ‘e’, we have to omit the letter ‘e’ first before adding the suffix ‘-ing’.
Examples: write – writi n g , arrange – arrangi n g , bake – baking
Sometimes, we have to double the final letters of some verbs before we can add the suffix ‘-ing’ at the end.
Examples: run – runni n g , swim – swimming, put – putting
Exercise: Add the suffix ‘-ing’ at the end of the verbs. Find the meaning of each verb in the dictionary. Write it down in your vocabulary book.
WORDS VERB + ING WORDS VERBS + ING
Let’s start writing!
Practice 1: Look at the pictures on page 22 – 26. Find the articles/numbers, subject, verb and ‘Wh’ for each picture. Then, write your sentences.
Practice 2: Look at the pictures below. Write as many sentences as you can by using Formula S-V-W.

Exercise: Write as many sentences as you can for each picture below using Formula TiTa and Formula S-V-W.

PART 2: ONE STEP FURTHER
Compound Sentences: Using conjunctions ‘and’ and
‘while’ ‘And’ – dan ‘While’ – manakala
Example: Try to write as many sentences as you can for the picture below.

Let’s combine some of the sentences using the conjunctions ‘and’ and ‘while’.
1.There are many children and many books at the library.
2. There are several shelves, tables, chairs and a counter at the library. 3. Some pupils are writing while two girls are discussing.
4. A boy is reading while an o t h e r b o y is putting a book on the shelf.

41
A man is talking on the phone.
Sentence 2:
Sentences 2 in both examples above are complex sentences. We can write complex sentences by adding a clause that describes the subject in the sentence. Note that the article ‘a’ is changed to ‘the’. When a subject is described, it becomes specific.
The structure:
The Subject who is (description) is verb+ing

Homework: Find as many adjectives as you can. List the adjectives in your vocabulary book.
Back to writing!
Now, how do we use adjectives in our writing? There are three simple ways.
I. Add appropriate adjectives before any nouns in the
sentence. Example 1:
Sentence 1:
There are several tables at the library.
Sentence 2:
There are several big tables at the spacious
library.
(big – besar, spacious – luas)
In the example above, the adjective ‘big’ is added before the noun ‘tables’, and the adjective ‘spacious’ is added before the noun ‘library’.
Example 2:
Sentence 1:
A few pupils are reading books.
Sentence 2:
A few hardworking pupils are reading books. (hardworking – rajin)
Practice: Add appropriate adjectives to the nouns in the sentences below.
A woman is standing on a chair.
(Adjectives: frightened – takut, small – kecil)
A
fr i gh t e n e d w o m an i s sta n ding o n a s m a l l c h a i r .
A boy is laughing at the
woman. (Adjective:
mischievous – nakal)
A girl is looking at the kitchen foor.
(Adjective: curious – ingin tahu, messy -
berterabur)
A mouse is standing beside a box.
There are three glasses on the table.
(Adjectives: clear – jernih, small - kecil)
There are two cans of paint on the piece of newspaper.
(Adjectives: large – besar, rectangular – berbentuk
segiempat)
A boy is painting a hibiscus on the wall.
(Adjectives: creative – kreatif, beautiful - cantik)
A boy is painting a wau on the wall.
II. Write sentences to describe the people in the picture using appropriate
adjectives. Examples:
The pupils are hardworking.
The woman is frightened.
The boys are artistic.
The children are diligent.
III. Write sentences to describe the nouns in the picture (the place, objects, plants, animals, etc) using appropriate adjectives.
Examples:
The library is spacious. The tables are big.
The kitchen foor is messy. The mouse is tiny.
The box is
rectangular.
The durians are delicious. The stall umbrella is huge. The baskets are full.
Practice!
Fill in the blanks with the appropriate adjectives.
Spice it up again! Use adverbs.
Adjectives describe nouns. Adjectives tell us how someone or something looks like or feels like.
Adverbs describe verbs. Adverbs tell us how something is being done. Adjectives are usually placed before nouns. Adverbs are usually placed before or after verbs.
Examples:
Sentence 1: The pupils are
studying. (How?)
Sentence 2: The pupils are studying diligently. (diligently – dengan tekunnya)
Sentence 1: The boy is
laughing. (How?)
Sentence 2: The boy is laughing mischievously. (mischiveously – dengan nakalnya)
Sentence 1: The women are
working. (How?)
