Using fairy tales as a model to enhance learners’ writing organization skill
Main Article Content
Abstract
Writing is one of the most difficult skills for both teachers and learners in that it is interfered with many factors, especially the cognitive ones. In a writing process, along with the grammar and vocabulary knowledge, organization is a crucial tool that achieves the ‘flow’ of writing. A well-prepared organization scheme makes the writing process easier for teachers to manage and for learners to write. The purpose of this paper is to present some theoretical information about improving writing organization skill with the help of fairy tales’ plot line as a model. After an extensive review of literature about the topic, some conclusions were drawn and recommendations were made for further studies.
