5.2.2.6 Meeting 6: ICoT
In this meeting, students continued their writing by re-writing their first drafts into second drafts. Relying on the teacher evaluation, students wrote their
second drafts and tried to add the information missing in their first drafts. Furthermore, they were permitted to bring new ideas into their second drafts.
Afterwards, the students revised their first drafts. The students worked on the revision by themselves before submitting the second drafts.
Before starting the last activity, the teacher told the students that in the last period of that meeting, she would ask them to write their final texts as the post test
of the cycle. Next, the teacher gave comments to students‟ second drafts,
especially on their contents and ideas and on the possible ways of expressing them in a clearer or better way. In addition, the teacher highlighted some of their
grammar and spelling mistakes which made the meaning unclear or wrong. Afterwards, students w
ere asked to take teacher‟s remarks into consideration while writing their final drafts. The students were engaged in
tidying up their texts as they prepare the final draft to be evaluated by the teacher. While the students were working individually, the teacher monitored their works
to ensure that they could follow the instruction. At the end of this meeting, all the final texts were submitted to the teacher
to be checked. Students‟ first drafts, second drafts, and final texts were stapled
together and submitted to the teacher for grading. The final texts were considered as the post-test of this cycle. The result of post-test 1 is presented in the appendix.
The same condition as meeting 5, in this last meeting, the students looked happily doing their final texts and tried to write their texts based on schematic
structure and linguistic features of descriptive text.
