Is an important form of communication. It allows the

students to put their feelings and ideas on paper, to
organize their knowledge and beliefs into convincing
arguments and to convey meaning through well-
constructed text.
Informative Writing
Provides information and explanations in a straight
forward manner to the readers. Informative essays are
type of writing that explains a certain issue or topic. The
writer of an informative essay is kind of like a reporter
at a newspaper: only there to state the facts, not to offer
any sort of opinion. In this type of an essay, the writer
should refrain from pointing out his personal and
beliefs. The purpose of an informative writing is to
educate others on a certain topic.
