This week, the class focused throughly on Never Let Me Go. This week, we reread Never Let Me Go, which I found pretty useful especially paired with discussion groups. I felt this was an effective learning tool to help refresh our memory on Never Let Me Go as well as gain some deeper insight upon the matter. Miss Abena was telling us that highlighting was crucial in helping us not lose track on the question, but for some reason I always forget to highlight, preferring to jot down some points and create points along the way. I'm not sure if this is very advisable in the exam. Comments on this procedure would be appreciated.
The next day, we did a practice question which after the memory refresher of reading the book, proved easier than I thought but I suppose i didn't feel the pressure of the clock enough and points were waffled on a bit too long, causing me to write my last two points overtime. Next time, analysis should be straight to the point, short and sweet without unnecessary waffle, don't want a repeat of what happened in the mocks.
During these final week before exams. I defiantly feel that the class's focus should be on Never Let Me Go. It's characters, themes, ideas and concepts should be analysed through and through. By doing 2 lit paper practices a week, I think it should suffice before exam month but i feel that careful attention needs to be paid to the comments given, as I haven't really been reflecting on these properly.
