[leahmaree1992]

In advanced this year we've read 'Animal Farm' and 'Othello'.
In extension we've read 'To Kill A Mockingbird' plus other short stories, and currently we've been given 'The Catcher in the Rye' for holiday reading.

And unlike most people in both of those classes, I've enjoyed all the books.

Adv: Life of Pi, Othello, Death of Salesman, Pleasantville
Ext: Metamorphosis, Dracula

 

[Carmen909]

Advanced - Huck Finn. This term we'll start King Lear...

Ext - Dracula, The Vampire Lestat.

 

[missmarshmallow]

So far for advanced we've read:
- the play "A Streetcar Named Desire" by Tennessee Williams
- the novel "The Lovely Bones" by Alice Sebold

And currently: "Othello"

 

[nathan.johnston]

Othello =\ LAAAME, I need a related text for it but - any ideas?
It has to be about Power and Persuasion

 

[x jiim]

For Advanced, finished Othello last term and we're just starting North&South. It's got to be one of my least favourite books of all time, and at this rate, the only English text I won't finish reading before the exam. Or at all, for that matter ><

 

[duckcowhybrid]

I rarely read my English texts. They're often garbage. In 2u We've read Brave New World, some poems, Tess of the d'Urbervilles and watched Chicago and As Good as it gets. For 3U, we've read Emma and Arcadia, and watched Clueless.

 

[Vamp!]

For advanced- Much Ado about nothing, comparing it to Love actually (the movie)
For extension- Dracula (just finished it),,,i think we are doing twilight next (i know...it sounds so weird)

 

[Miss Melly]

advanced - animal farm and othello
extension - to kill a mockingbird and we're meant to read catcher in the rye in the holidays but honestly i have betters things to do/read

 

[danal353]

The Justice game for advanced and Wuthering heights for extension

 

[MissGiggles]

for our advanced novel study we read "wrack" and spent most of term two complaining about the ending (or lack of one) and about James Bradley not answering our emails. you'd think a corpse would be exciting but by the end you really just don't care.

then we read Othello in the holidays and i feel sooo sorry for the two guys in the class

for extension we've read "An Imaginary Life" and it just goes on and on and on about how good nature is. the sort of thing with commas instead of full stops

if only we could study The Host
