first person. If a person outside the story is the narrator, then the story is being told in the third person Anderson Anderson, 2003.
3. Teaching Writing a
General Principles of Writing
Writing is detached from the wide range of expressive possibilities in speech. Rosen in Hedge 1988: 5 states that a writer is unable to exploit all the
devices available to a speaker: gesture, body movement, facial expression, pitch and tone of voice, stress, and hesitation. Effective writing requires a number of
things: a high degree of organization in development of Ideas and information; a high degree of accuracy so that there is no ambiguity of meaning; the use of
complex grammatical devices for focus and emphasis; and a careful choice of vocabulary, grammatical patterns, and sentence structures to create a style which
is appropriate to the subject matter and the eventual readers. A good deal of writing in the English language classroom is undertaken as an aid to learn. The
role of writing is little different from its role in any other subject.
b Teaching Narrative Text
It is clear that students who are successful in writing across the curriculum have implicit knowledge of the feature of a wide range of written genres. As
everybody knows there are some genres that the students must learn at school. When the students learn genres they must understand about their generic structure
and significant language features. There are some genres such as report, narrative, procedure, recount and descriptive.In this chance, the writer chooses the narrative
text as the research. There are four main stages in this curriculum cycle for teaching different written genres. The stages are 1 Building Knowledge of the
Field BKOF, 2 Modeling of Text MOT – students need to be guided to deconstruct a model of a text of similar happening to become smaller organism.
3 Joint Construction of Text JCOT - students are guided to reconstruct the text from the smallest to the biggest organism; including the language features from
the lowest to the highest level of language in guided to freer and grouped types of exercises; and 4 Independent Construction of Text ICOT – students are given

opportunities to develop new texts of the same genre in guided to frees and more independent and individual types of exercises. Based on the theory that had been
stated above. It can be concluded that Derewianka 1990: 41, the main goal of telling a story is to entertain, to get and to pay the attention of the readers or the
listeners for what we tell them.
