“…Relevant research, especially in the traditional classroom, has demonstrated the usefulness of SFL to help students power through challenges in the writing classrooms following the reading to learn cycle (i.e., reading sample texts and then guiding students in understanding meaning-making and constructing their writing) [13], [17], [18], [19]. For example, Moore, Schleppegrel, and Palincsar focused on elementary English-as-a-second-language (ESL) students in the US who were exposed to the teaching of narratives from a functional linguistic perspective [20]. Over two years, the students were able to identify the interrelationships between linguistic resources and meanings in sample narrative texts, such as the identification of processes at the ideational level and appraisal resources at the interpersonal level.…”
