Language Change - Writing an Opinion Article

Morning all,

Today you will be writing your opinion articles on Language Change using the ideas presented in 'Word of the Year' (click to access) and using some of the terminology from the PowerPoint I went through on Thursday (click to access). You have the whole lesson to write this article so I am expecting one from everyone by the end of the lesson.

This is essentially a version of the task you will need to do on Paper 2 of your A Level exam which may focus on the topic of language change. Below are some materials to support you in this task:

Links to the question paper (it is the last question on the paper) and the link to the second supporting article that you can take ideas from:

Question Paper
Second Article

And a link to 2 student responses with commentary from the examiners - one response is around a D and the other a B, so look at the differences between the two. (look for Question 4 in this document)

Student Responses

Any issues, let me know.
