Wider Reading Extracts
Click here to see a copy of the book at AmazonHere's a link to Amazon and a collection of extracts all based on 'The Struggle for Identity'. It's a really useful book to buy - especially if you feel you've got a it behind with that wider reading...
SNOW DAY WORK
What a nightmare eh? Never mind, you can make really good use of this time at home by preparing for your exam and the wider reading element of the paper. You can also use the power point below to work on that exam question I gave you. Don't try doing it in timed conditions yet. Do it well and spend more time on it.
Check in regularly as I update this page.
You need to get your wider reading notes into a useful format.
Soooooo. You must be able to refer to all three genres: Poetry, prose and drama. I think you are lacking in some poetry wider reading so I will post a few poems in the next hour for you to analyses in terms of 'The Struggle for Identity'
Keeping notes:
Collect apt, SHORT quotations from your wider reading texts which fit under the main areas of 'The Struggle for Identity'
GENDER
RACE
SOCIAL/POLITICAL
SEXUAL
RELIGIOUS
You can also organise your notes chronologically (by date published)
For every quotation you select, make sure you write a comment about the effect.
Check out that booklet I gave you at the beginning of the year about how to approach the wider reading. It's uploaded on this Blog.
You can send me a message by e-mail or post a comment on this page.
PS. Does anyone know Katie's e-mail address? She can't access the Blog and I left her e-mail at school
