    Racial discrimination in HSC language courses

    How is she going to handle the speaking component of the extension languages? Giving a three minute speech with only 7 minutes preparation time on a completely random topic (ie. global warming, social media) is no mean feet even for an adult in their native langauge, let alone a 9 year old.

    Does anyone know how to analyse a (non Shakespeare) play for English? Should I analyse one particular production or just the play itself? And if so, what techniques should I be using?

    Racial discrimination in HSC language courses

    I wasn't really being serious. But the Japanese course has definitely been dumbed down so it would be less of a pain for non-Chinese students.

    Racial discrimination in HSC language courses

    Hey, no need to be so dismissive and condescending! To OP, I always did find it strange that basically only Asian languages have a background speaker/heritage component, but I guess you do have to look at it from another perspective. It really isn't fair for someone with a non Asian background...

    I really don't like doing triq questions... Decimals make me anxious. How "applied" does HSC maths get?

    It's also important to note that the difference in scaling between the bolded subjects is quite small, as opposed to Japanese and SOR/Industrial

    Yea definitely! Chinese Cinderella is basically a revised edition for Falling Leaves which makes it more child friendly, and since most english teachers talk about "choosing sophisticated related texts" etc etc...

    I've found that ever since switching to a folder+loose leaf paper, my bag has been a lot lighter. On some days, my bag is just for decoration because all I need is my folder.

    This is me for maths. I get so stressed when I can't solve a question to the the point that it becomes tied with my personal happiness and well being.
