    Term 2: Week 10


    Last day of Term! 

    Our context for this term is "Survival 101" . This concept is great because it is open to interpretation in that we are able to use many avenues to explore the topic. To me, it is a look into initiatives and the culture of South Auckland, and our place in it. 

    The overall working plan for English this term will look something like this using the term context as a slight guide: *

    - Revisiting formal essay writing: How much do we remember? (2 WEEKS)

    - Film study (2 WEEKS)

    - Response to text (2 WEEKS)

    - Static image. survival guide - (4 WEEKS)

    - Procedural writing (1 WEEK)

    Success Criteria for Term 1: We are learning to...

    1) Recognize areas of personal development with formal writing and answer the question: "What do I need to do/change to improve my writing?"

    • PEDAL paragraphs

    2) Analysing film study techniques 

    3) Understand the meaning of the director's purpose

    4) Response to text - PETAL 

    5) Static images creation 

    6) Draft survival guide
