I put together some stuff I found in a variety of places on the poems and more essay questions. It all looks good to me. At the very least , it will help you to add a few more annotations to poems and think about the anthology as a 'collection'.
I really hope you are all accessing this blog. The count of visitors is going up, but I think it might be other schools?

Useful revision on Carol Ann!
This is an interactive power point and you will have to download it to make it work properly. Click on the red title to download from slideshare. Work through the presentation and it will help you group the poems and think about examination responses. I found this somewhere on the web, but it looks really useful. If I knew whose it was I would give them the credit. Try it! Happy revising...
