    memorising essays?

    If you get more than one essay only one of them, and I repeat, only one will be a takehome one. They can't overload you with too much work if you have to write two or three practise essays and expect u to remember all of them, there will only ever be one essay which you can write up at home and...

    How would I approach this belonging question?

    Q. belonging is more than ownership. It is about relationships. Do you agree? In your answer refer to your prescribed text (Romulus my Father is mine) and TWO other texts of your own choosing I'm kinda having doubts about how I would approach this question, but I think so far that this...

    memorising essays?

    It can be done, but if the question is a take home one its still easier to write a practise essay and just memorise that, reading over it again and again helps, as well as reciting in your head out loud or in your head sentence by sentence at a time. NOTE- Don't bother remembering the entire...

    Workshop at Wenona this sunday.

    Someone I talked to at the workshop said that she was the only one doing ext 2 at her school. Myself and another were the only two to go from Normo, with everyone else including the teacher not bothering to go, so we had to get the worksheets for them...but still it's pretty anxious when you...

    Integrated or Block Essays?

    So in regards to essay writing, I've written all my essays in block format (that is, talk about each idea + text in a different paragraph) and I've been getting 18/20 for most of them, as well as B's and B + 's but apparently that isn't sophisticated enough for the HSC questions where an...

    Belonging Creative Writing Ideas

    How bout a story on not belonging?- where an individual chooses not to belong to a group because they might want to make a statement about themselves and to assert their individuality, cause there are also negative implications about belonging to some groups. I'm planning on using this as the...

    Belonging: Romulus My Father question

    You could also link the understanding with the notion of acceptance, which to a large extent does influence whether someone belongs- migrants were "tolerated but seldom accorded the respect they deserved;" this is why it is hard for Romulus and the other migrants to forge a sense of belonging...

    Belonging: Related Text Suggestions

    Hey guys, would anyone be able to suggest the suitability of my related text "Band of Brothers?" (The book, not the tv series) I've seen it on lists of belonging related texts before, but then again these were the same lists which had "Ice Age" and "Happy Feet" as suitable related text (yes, I...

    Help! I need help with getting ideas togetherrrrrrr!!

    This is just whatI think, but you could model the context of your society as a technological dystopia which exploits the dwindling natural resources of the earth without a scant regard for the damage being done to the environment. And as for the plot, you could have your protagonist associate...

    Journal + notebook -- a few questions?

    Some people have already finished? I've only just started, with 6 pages of crap to show for my work ><

    Journal + notebook -- a few questions?

    Wait will the BoS actually mark the journal as part of the major work? Cause I hate my journal and to date I've only filled it with crap- about how I've looked at a few webpages and books, how I've updated my viva voce/major work and everything else pretty inconsequential...
