LI: To identify the author's purpose.
The above google maps is a collaborative work of Ong and me under the topic of reading. We identified the purpose or reason of the author writing the article which were to persuade, inform or entertain. Each day, newspaper editors around the world must make decisions about which stories they will run. We explored the different types of current events that are happening around the world as well as plotted the location on google maps. It covered topics like timeliness, relevance, magnitude, unexpectedness, impact, somebody important, oddity, conflict, something negative, continuity, emotions and progress. I came to know a lot after completing this activity and enjoyed learning about the things that are happening in the world.
