B. Suggestions
From the conclusion stated above, I suggested the English teachers to use pictures in teaching writing, especially writing descriptive text, in order that the
students can write more easily. The teacher may use sequence pictures and coloured pictures to attract the students’ attention.
For further research, I suggest to develop picture in teaching writing descriptive text because the research proved that picture could stimulate the
students to enrich their vocabulary and other knowledge based on their experience.
