Now you have completed the AS course, you should visit the A2 Literature Blog.
The A2 Literature Stoodle Click on the link. Your theme is Love Through the Ages from Chaucer to the present day.

We will be starting with "The Miller'sTale" Chaucer. I will give you a course booklet, reading list, Literature time line, and pack on how to keep your notes on wider reading when you return after half term.

There might be lots of you on various visits for other subjects, but you must collect any work missed from your English teachers as we are actually starting the A2 course and all the work we do in the Summer term is vital to your A2 exam.

Looking forward to seeing you again,
Mrs Sims
