IB ENGLISH THURSDAY 12 MARCH LESSON 12.30 - 1.30

I'm sorry but the class this afternoon - Thursday 12 March 12.30 - 1.30 is cancelled.

Tomorrow we need to talk about the final presentations for this year. These presentations will be assessed and form part of your final IB mark next year. I expect you will have an idea about what text your presentation will be on and an idea about the topic you will choose. You can give a presentation on  a poem or two poems on a theme from Tales from Ovid, a presentation on a sonnet or sonnets by a poet - probably not a sonnet from the anthology, or a short story or two short stories on a theme from The Bloody Chamber.

And tomorrow let's look at two extracts from the short story The Bloody Chamber.

I suggest we look at pages 13 - 18 and 33 - 41.

We'll read them and consider such things as character, relationships, setting, language.

If there is another short extract you'd like to consider let me know tomorrow.

Once again apologies for my absence.
