Many thanks to those who attended the two Interventions this Easter break - shame on you to those who didn't. Final decisions have been made about tier entries for the exam, you now have to focus on what you must do to achieve the highest possible mark in all possible exams. It's Thursday - you have 30 minutes to do something that will help you pass your GCSE English Language or GCSE English Literature exams - GO!
Read the opening page of Chapter 1 and Chapter 6 of Of Mice and Men - in the Brush - compare how Steinbeck presents nature (light, animals, the natural world) does it change? What does it symbolise?
Or
Read Act 1 of An Inspector Calls - make notes - how are the characters introduced? comment on dialogue, action and description. It does change later. Look at the punctuation and stage directions.
Or
Read The Farmer's Bride by Charlotte Mew - what's different between the Farmer's Bride and Curley's Wife? Do you feel any sympathy with the Farmer (a simple working man who doesn't know what to do with a young wife)?
You have 30 minutes.
Tomorrow - another 30 minutes!!
