Description
Summary:This academic writing is conducted with the purpose to investigate the effectiveness of using pictures to help students of Year Four Waja to improve their writing skill. This study involves five students in the experimental group and thirty-three students for the control group. The data was obtained through students' writing scripts and semi structured interview. The findings indicated the effectiveness of Picture Inductive Word Model (PIWM) and the feedback are shown in tables and graphs with further explanation The findings showed that there were differences the in the experimental group's writing after using the PIWM. Students were able to use the technique learnt into new situations and the ability to describe pictures with minimal guidance. The findings also seem to suggest that exposure to the language does play an important role in students' vocabulary building and more time was needed to construct more sentences.
