Where are you kids hiding?
How did you find it?
How did you find the stimulus picture?
It made me swear.
1) Only 70 kids in the state do it, so we're not going to be obvious.
2) Pretty straight forward.
3) Stimulus was great. Usually they give us an image shared with acts of reading and writing which is always aimed at them because its considered the harder module. This years was the best ever, I grabbed onto the concept of words (language) being like weapons (missiles, attacking)
The essay was annoying, because it asked how 'gendered language' explored the workings of power (that is, how power is weilded) and the different angles (male, female, a conflation of both) which can be used to achieve it.
It was irratating because its a knowledge of the fluidity of gendered language, not 'gendered language' itself which allows an individual to realise these elements. They didn't attach a word like 'fluidity' though cause it would just confuse the rest of the state.
