This Monday is your English Literature Paper 1; the exam will be 1 hour 45 mins.
Remember ....
Section A: Shakespeare ( Macbeth )
Section B: 19th-century novel ( A Christmas Carol )
You will answer one question on each text:
- An extract-based question
- A question which refers to the rest of the text
All pupils need to revise the common approach to the question. This will include revision of:
- Short textual references
- Writer’s methods (characterisation, settings, atmosphere, motifs and symbolism)
- Contextual links and exploring characters as vehicles (society, writer’s intention and/or impact upon the audience)
Pupils have the Boot camp resources to support their revision of these!
You can also use GCSE Pod, Pearson revise or your study guides.
We are running a breakfast session at 8am on Monday for those after last minute tips and advice!
Good Luck!
