  2. Things we did well 

  3. Understood the content/main idea of the texts • Most of you were confidently able to identify what each text was discussing and what their perspective on the subject was. • This bodes well for your summative 2.7s and for Unfamiliar text! • Be careful that you don’t become focused too much on this though!

  4. Structured our reports clearly • You all generally did well at giving your report a clear structure. • Things to remember to keep this up: • Plan- it is important to have one. • Topic sentences- make these as clear as possible and link to your connection. • Links- between paragraphs and back to the connection you have identified. • A structural feature that could be improved on= paragraph structure.

  5. Things we need to work on/reminders

  6. Refer to Authors by LAST NAME When you first mention an author, director etc. you should use both their first and last names. E.g. Maya Angelou, Katja von Garnier, Katherine Mansfield. Thereafter, you may refer to them using only one name, but this must always be their last name. E.g. von Garnier, Mansfield, Angelou.

  7. Give me some context info about the texts A lot of you had some valid points to make about the texts and jumped into making points and giving examples. Often the relevance and importance of your examples are lost, without some understanding of where they fit in terms of the text as a whole. You should be aiming to give some indication of what the text is about, who it was written/created by and for what purpose. IF you are talking about a character it is important that you give some information about who that character is.

  8. Give Quotation Evidence A 2.7 report is just link in essay in terms of this. When you make a point about a text, you need to be able to support your point and this involves quoting from the text. You must quote from all the texts you discuss and include quotes in each paragraph of your report.

  9. Explain Quotation Evidence Again, just like an essay you need to EXPLAIN the quotes that you give. You cannot assume that you have made a point just by giving a quote. You should aim to explain HOW your quote supports your point. What does it tell us and how does it tell us this?

  10. Be clear about what the similarities are that you see between texts. This is the most important part. This is an assessment about connections. Connections means “a relationship or link between two or more things”. You MUST focus on discussing the similarities between the texts, rather than discussing each text in isolation. This does not mean everything about the texts has to be the same, but you should be analysing the similarities of an identified feature. You should mention this in each of your paragraphs.

  11. Make links BETWEEN the texts THROUGHOUT • It is important to make links between the texts throughout- not just to make fleeting mention of connections in topic sentences. • Appropriate times to make connections include: • Topic Sentences • Links at the end of paragraphs • When giving or analysing an exampleetc. • You can also point out things that are different between texts within a connection.

  12. How do we make links throughout? • By using comparative language. • Here are some examples of comparative sentence stems (I will give you a handout with these and more). • Similarly to.. • Unlike… • Like… • Comparably • Likewise…
