Section outline

    • We are EXPLORING how different people address challenges and choices through studying a variety of short texts.
    • We are EXPLORING how directors use a range of techniques to create mood and tone within short film
    • We are EXPLORING how to recognise the director's purpose through our interpretation of their use of language
    • We are making connections between the texts we have read, observing how the authors address/reflect on challenges and choices.

    Activities: 

    We will be transferring our application of the skills covered in class (see bullet points above), to an analysis of two short films (one per week).

    Success criteria: I have

    • completed analysis tasks on the short film "Nzingha" to demonstrate my understanding of how directors use techniques to create mood/tone and how to recognise the director's purpose through our own interpretation of these techniques. (Activity can be found on google classroom)
    • turned in the tasks when I would like feedback on my work
    • shared my annotated poem work (week 4) with Ms Wood.
