Yep SoulSearcher I got Faro.

We never did that exam assessment you're talking about... we had one but it was a comprehension and later in the year.

Good luck everybody with your English assessments :)
Hmm ok then, its more of a short answer questions/creative response test and you have to find 2 other supplementary materials for the short answer section.

We have three assessments for english all revolving the theme 'changing perspectives'. One of them is writing a narrative/story that has the theme changing perspectives so i'm trying to think of a good/interesting plot.

Just finished an assessment last Thursday, and look at this: another assessment on poetry (takes up 15% weighting) about changing (I'd be doing Judith Wright) on 20 Mar, and a stimulus booklet where we need to analyse three texts of our own choise plus another text about changing composed by ourselves. Ahh great. What can I make up that is somewhat relevant to 'changing'?? :S

Is it me or does English have a thing with the number 'three'?

It's just you...

Just kidding! :) All last year, our teacher kept telling us that "three" was the magic number, and always to use three different techniques when answering questions. I'm sure she told us other things about "three" but i forgot.

I hated Othello
I hated Change
I hated Sense and Sensibility

I hate Journeys


Frontlines fun though
and doing Heart of Darkness and Crime Fiction [Yr11 EE1 + Yr 12 EE2 respectively] is also much funness
Loving Ee2 :D

EE1 knocks the pance off Adv. Eng anyday.

I am beginning to realise that EXT1 is nothing like advanced in terms of enjoyment.

I agree. Advanced English is toughh!!!!!!:mad1: My tip for the day: take it in small but regular doses. Build up your immunity to the 'yucky' aspects and go for glory. It's only a couple of months and then you won't have to do any more Advanced e
English. :bomb:

Well what do you know, apart from the fact that I have to find three supplementary texts, we have three assessment tasks on the AoS 'Changing', one's already done and the coming two are three days apart, and yesterday, after the English lesson, my English teacher asked us to analyse this poem of Judith Wright explaining three techniques used in-depth. So there you go. Oh, and have I mentioned the fact that a typical analysis of mine is three pages long? :p

So far, I'm loving Advance English because I'm doing well in it depsite it being boring. First assignment, I got full marks. BOO YEAH!

The only thing I'm dreading is Extension English which is the most CONFUSING subject I have ever taken in my life. :p
