Sample Essay ( P2Q2B ) : Choosing A Badminton Club

Join Our Badminton Club !
· Activities held every Thursday
· Time : 4.30 p.m.
· Pay RM3.00 per month
· Get lots of exercise
· Bring your own racquet and shuttlecocks
· Play in the school hall


I would choose Badminton Club because I feel this particular club would probably be the best club for me and perhaps for my classmates too as we are keen on badminton.
Being charged at RM3.00 monthly for every new member, I assume the fee is realistic as the club does not provide us with any racquet and shuttlecocks. As good luck would have it, I have my own new Yonex racquet and a dozen of shuttlecocks given by my father recently as my birthday presents.
The time for the training session is fixed on every Thursday at 4.30 p.m. By coincident, I am not engaged with any other activities at this particular hour. Therefore, I am able to turn up for the club activities. More than that, it is held at the school hall. Meaning, after the Thursday school hours, I might as well stay in school and start my badminton activities at 4.30 p.m.
Last but not least, involving in badminton activities enables me to have ample exercises. Obviously, it is good for my health and I don't really need to go jogging on weekends.
Based on what I have mentioned above, I see no reason at all why I shouldn't choose this club for myself. I am optimist I could have great benefits and advantages once I join this club.

Sample Essay ( P2Q3 ) : Witnessing An Accident

It so happened on last Sunday when Devan and his family were on their way to Ayer Keroh , Melaka to visit his grandmother who was seriously ill. Truly, they were a little bit apprehensive about Devan’s grandmother’s condition. They departed at the crack of dawn to avoid the snarl-up because that very Sunday was a weekend holiday.
As they were heading for Ayer Keruh, they saw an accident adjacent to a crossroad out of the blue. They pulled over and got down from their car. A car and a motorcycle were involved in the terrifying accident. As they were approaching the accident scene, they discovered the motorcyclist and the car driver were severely injured. The motorcyclist was lying on the road next to his damaged motorcycle with a bleeding head whereas the driver was trapped in the driver’s seat and seemed unconscious. As good luck would have it, the two victims were still alive.
Devan and his family were down in the dumps. His father at the drop of a hat called up the ambulance and the police. Minutes later, an ambulance and a patrol car arrived at the scene. The paramedics then brought the casualties into the ambulance to be brought to the hospital for further treatment.
At the same time, the policeman spent some time getting some information regarding the accident from Devan’s father. His father cooperated and gave the necessary information.
When everything was over, they resumed their journey. Devan reminded his father to be very vigilant along their journey to Ayer Keroh.

Tips At Your Finger Tips ...

You know something guys,
When you write essays for your UPSR, you should convince the examiners that you are a mature writer who not only can write well but are able to write fluently and proficiently. But then how can you when you have only limited vocabulary list because you seldom read and write. The following is a simple tip on how you can enhance your writing quality. As a matter of fact, there are several words regularly used in most essays in Year 6. The words are suddenly, immediately, happy, sad etc. These words if being replaced with idioms and correctly used, could help in a way enhance the quality of writing for at least. Study the following examples :

1. Suddenly, she saw a young girl shouting for help. --> A bolt from the blue, she saw a young girl shouting for help.

2. They helped the victim immediately. --> They helped the victim at the drop of a hat.

So guys, whenever you are using these common words or phrases in your essay writing, try substitute them with idioms wherever possible and applicable. Consult your teacher for further explanation.
a) suddenly --> a bolt from the blue / out of the blue
b) immediately --> at the drop of a hat / at a drop of a dime
c) happy --> on cloud nine
d) sad --> down in the dumps
e) thankful and appreciating one's good deed --> owed a debt of gratitude
f) near or close to --> adjacent to
g) early morning --> at the crack of dawn

Cheerios. All da best!
