We are going to be studying the articles from Cupcakes under small clusters of articles under specific headings. Over the next two weeks we'll be focusing on the topic Making History. The articles under this heading are:
Report from the Spanish Civil War
On Surviving the London Blitz
Report on the Fall of the Berlin Wall
The Arafat I Knew
By next Monday's lesson you will need to have read and annotated the three articles we've not looked at in class.
Remeber you should be able to identify the audience, purpose and genre. Select key peices of information from each paragraph in the articles and in the margin or in your notes jot down in your own words the points being made in the article. You are identifying key facts, feelings and episodes from each article.
In Monday's lesson we will be focussing on Report from the Spanish Civil War and On Surviving the London Blitz.
As well as reading and annotating the articles you should undertake some relevant research into these two events.
