Homework

Sorry Y10 - I know a few of you have looked at this this morning.


We are now at the stage where we are comparing our texts.

During this task we have had a focus on analysing language - that's because you get more marks for it! We've done this through mind-mapping, which is an incredibly useful revision tool. These should look something like this (please note, some of the sentences aren't quite right - it's hard to see in a small box in PowerPoint!)


These mind-maps are now essential for your thoughts on comparison.

So, your homework is to write a paragraph of comparison. This is your first one so it will be hard. You have to get things wrong to get them right!




Let me know if you have any problems/ questions.

Holiday Homework

Happy Easter Y10!

This holiday your homework is to fully annotate your booklet.You're looking for emotion and make sure it is detailed showing layers of meaning.  If you do not have it, THE CONTROLLED ASSESSMENT BOOKLET IS AVAILABLE: CLICK HERE.

I'm not expecting you to be able to translate this on your own. Use the wealth of information on the web - you'll have to be able to do this for independent study; in short, this search itself is a useful learning experience for you. See previous post for links.

Should be simple enough! Let me know if you have any problems: you can leave a comment and it will email me.

Hi Y10

This week, we have moved on to Macbeth. Use this link if you want to read ahead.

Your formative work will not be marked until after next week - I have Y11 and Y13 and they must take priority as you will this time next year...

Let me know if you need anything,
Ms

Romanticism and Frankenstein

Hello all
This week we have looked at Romantic views on Nature and Frankenstein. You watched this film (click for link) on this; it's very informative and gives you a good understanding of Romantic ideas about nature. I would also recommend you watch the other two films in the series, Eternity and Liberty, as they will deepen your understanding of the movement.
Your homework is to go through your text and find three words that you didn't know. The first three people on the register need to write them up beautifully for display.
Let me know if you have any issues
Ms

Context Posters for Frankenstein

Hello Y10
As it happened, most of the class were absent on Wednesday so the work you need to do is just to finish your context poster.
Lucky you.
