The half term break is quickly approaching, and so here is an overview of what you should be working on this week and next and what I would like to see from you when we come back:
- You should have written the first 500 words of both coursework pieces. This does not mean I want you to condense your whole piece down to just 500 words - just the introduction and the beginning of the main body of your piece is fine.
- Your writing needs to show that you know exactly what your topic is, and that you have done some research on the subject matter. Don't worry too much about your bibliography at this point, but just make sure that you know where you have got your information from.
- It needs to show that you know exactly who your audience is, so you need to make sure that you are writing to suit this demographic. This should also match the audience for your style model.
- Your style models should be clearly annotated with references to grammatical, lexical, phonological, graphological and discourse frameworks. This is all then linked to the GAP of each text. This will help when you come to write your commentary.
Remember that this is just a draft, and by no means am I expecting perfection! This is just a starting point, so no matter how undeveloped you feel your piece is, I still need to see this after half term to see how you are getting on.
When we get back after half term you will each get feedback for your travel writing, monologue and style model analysis, provided I have them all from everyone before the end of the week.
Have a lovely break and have a rest!
Claudia
