POSITION PAPER OUTLINE

I. INTRODUCTION
A. The issue is about the plan of student council in preparing an arts festival in school but the
administration is reluctant to agree to the plan
B. School activities like art festivals, intramurals and foundation day are always the part of the
school programs every year and these are significant aspect of a student’s total education program
but then the administration is reluctant to agree to the plan of the student council because it

physically, mentally, emotionally, socially and morally.
II. BODY
A. The art festival program involves taking two days off the student’s normal classes.
1. It will only take two days and I believe that this will not affect the whole school year.
2. School programs can reduce the prevalence of health risk behaviour’s among youth and have a
positive effect on academic performance. School activities like art festivals, intramurals and
foundation day, provides opportunities for students to further develop their skills. It also provides
experiences that will help students grow physically, mentally, emotionally, socially and morally
so taking 2 days of the students normal classes will not affect the whole school year performance.
B. The students deserve to experience enjoyment once in a lifetime in their school life and
not always stress in school.
1. This activity can help the students to develop their skills by participating in this kind of
activity.
2. These festivals give students an opportunity to express their artistic and literary talent which
can help improve their skills. This activity can motivate students to engage in activities in their
class.
C. The activity also provides experiences that will help students grow physically, mentally,
emotionally, socially and morally.
1. This provides opportunities for students to further develop their social beings.
2. Celebrating events and festivals in schools have become an integral part of learning and
building a strong cultural belief in a child. ... Such celebration will bring students closer to
traditional and cultural belief. A close bond is built between the students as they understand each
other's different customs. Festivals contribute immensely to feelings of social cohesion. Many
such celebrations focus on cultural or ethnic topics and seek to inform community members of
their traditions.
D. The administration might not get persuade by these argument as it’s not that strong argument,
lack of information and there might be some error grammar with my argument but if I were given
a chance to talk with the administrator face to face or to the principal I will do my best to
persuade them, make them realize that two days off the student’s normal classes will not affect
the whole school year.
IV. CONCLUSION
A. School activities like art festivals, intramurals and foundation day are always the part of the
school programs every year and these are significant aspect of a student’s total education
program. School activities like art festivals, intramurals and foundation day, provides
opportunities for students to further develop their skills. It also provides experiences that will help
students grow physically, mentally, emotionally, socially and morally.

further develop their skills. It also provides experiences that will help students grow and two days
off the student’s normal classes will not affect the whole school year.

III. Write a summary

Mental health is the foundation for the well-being and effective functioning of individuals. It is
more than the absence of a mental disorder; it is the ability to think, learn, and understand one's
emotions and the reactions of others. Mental health is a state of balance, both within and with
the environment. Physical, psychological, social, cultural, spiritual and other interrelated factors
participate in producing this balance. There are inseparable links between mental and physical
health. Mental illnesses are conditions that affect a person’s thinking, feeling, mood or
behaviour, such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia.
Engaging in regular physical activity can improve your overall health and reduce your stress
levels. When you exercise, your body releases endorphins. These feel-good hormones can also
ease symptoms of depression and anxiety. When it comes to managing stress, proper nutrition
is your friend. Skipping meals can lower your blood sugar, which can depress your mood.
Reaching out to someone you trust, such as a friend, family member, or co-worker. Sharing
your feelings or venting your concerns may help to reduce your stress.
And the most important in preventing mental illness is be kind to yourself.

PERFORMANCE TASK # 2
Activity 6.4: Let’s write: SURVEY OF ACADEMIC AND GENERAL
READING IN ENGLISH.

Identify the parts (introduction, body, and conclusion) of a survey report in sample B. You may
write or encode your answer.

SURVEY OF ACADEMIC AND GENERAL READING IN ENGLISH

Introduction:
On 8th February 1999, a survey was conducted among 16 overseas postgraduate students at the
University of England. The purpose of the survey was to discover the reading habits in English of
the students. The survey was conducted by means of a questionnaire given to the students to
complete. The first part of the questionnaire dealt with the type of reading and its frequency. The
second section was concerned with newspapers the type of items read and those that were read
first.

Main Body:
From the table of data, the most significant items are as follows. In the first section 81% of the
students regularly read academic books" while 44% regularly read academic journals. Nothing
else is read regularly on often by 40% or more of the students. The following comments can be
made about the reading of newspapers, magazines and fiction. 75% sometimes read regional or
local newspapers, 69% sometimes read books of fiction, 62% sometimes read general magazines,
and 56% sometimes read national daily newspapers. On the other hand, 37% never read Sunday
newspapers and 31% never read fiction. In the second section, not surprisingly, 100% read news
about their own country in newspapers and 56% read this first. 94% read international news, 25%
read this first. 81% read about Britain and look at radio and TV information. The only other item
that is usually read by more than 50% of the students is current affairs (read by 56%).

Conclusion:
If any conclusions may be drawn from the data, they are, perhaps, as follows. Overseas students
presumably have little time for general reading: most of their reading time is spent on books and
journals on their own subject. Outside their studies, apart from reading news about their own
country, international news, and news about Britain, they probably spend most time watching TV
and listening to the radio.
