Hey,

does everyone have the same assessment task for english. Like at our school, we have to pretend to be the actual poet and discuss the poems to a group of HSC students. Anyone else had to do that?

thanx......just wondering :)

Is this a written task?...in prelims, we had to do in class essays, speeches and a written radio interview for the critical study.

no, the speech can be written beforehand, only, obv., you had to do your speech during classtime.

however for soc, my teacher lets us do in-class practice essays which is good

for advanced i've gotta "assume the persona of the director of a film" and discuss filmic techniques etc to an imaginary cast and crew :)
for extension, i've got to write an appropriation of a fairytale and postmodernise it ~ 2500-3000 words.

yeah. I managed to put the theme and techniques of the poems all in ONE page (as instructed) and done my speech. Did ot on wednesday when the strike was on. All i gotta do now is practics, practics, and practice for maths and english. Couples was just telling me today how Mr. H did not like one of the filns she has chosen so she has to change it. :rolleyes:

edit: save it for the spelling, just came back from maths tutoring :)

our ones are long too....if ur on msn, I'll send mine thru.....I have no idea how to attach on posts :p :rolleyes:
mainly since I have John Foulcher.....the theme is the violence of nature (obviously explaine din more detail in each poem) and no I did not list every technique. Just the "important" ones like euphemism, the "feel" of danger, imagery AND simile etc. etc. :( But I'm not sure cos Mr. H said not to just point out the obvious ones

For my english advanced class we've just finished identity, with the assessment asking us to assume the role of an 'extrodinary' persons life and talk about his/her background and stuff and how it related to the theme of identity.

I chose Carson from queer eye. o.o
