This week, we started on a Literature Essay on the Boy In Striped Pyjamas on the novel question "How does Boyne present friendship in the novel." I struggled on this question quite a lot and I requested Miss Abena for a change in the question into "How does Boyne present violence and inhumanity in the novel?' although this question became much easier, I still struggled to understand about thesis statement, topic sentences but eventually after some explanation by Miss Abena and Sandra I got what they meant.
As this was my second literature essay, I needed some assistance within the process of writing the actual essay, I would always go to Miss Abena to ask for comments about my essay and I would always go back to my table with some problem with the essay. Literary essay's in government school and international schools are so different as in government schools literature essay are easy and the points in the novel are very explicit while here I would have to read and examine and analyses points to provide an answer
With some guidance and suport, I can achieve my target of writing a well written piece.
Do you feel you are getting enough guidance and support? Do you have any questions?
ReplyDeletePlease use the questions we went over in class for your reflections.
I feel I am getting enough, but it's just I either don't bother or am too embarrassed to ask, consulting you in private would be an option
