The student blogs on the right hand side feature short stories with a breakdown of their notes.

Hi all,

We will be in 504 tomorrow (library computer room). As the Princess Bride books are no longer relevant to your studies this would be a great opportunity for you to return these to the library without having to do so in your own time.

For tomorrow's in-class essay: a double sided A4 page of notes is allowed. You must ensure that the content of your notes page is not your pre-written essay.

If you need the questions they are:

Texts offer ideas about relationships in society.
Discuss this statement with reference to the novel you have studied.


How do literary texts use or adapt generic conventions to influence readers' expectations?


Have the literary texts you have studied challenged or changed your own values and/or attitudes? Justify your response with reference to one or more texts.


Discuss how the meanings you made from a text you have studied were influenced by your exposure to, and knowledge of, other texts.


Writers use language to make a big impact. With reference to at least one text you have studied, discuss how its language has made a big impact on you.

This is a part of your next task and will be the main focus of tomorrow's lesson.

This is where you need to be for next year. Acquaint yourself with the standard you need to achieve.

Don't forget to visit the Google doc included at the end of this message and write a provisional thesis for each question. Mr D and I have already put some examples up for you in the comment thread.
