Year 7
The Year 7 class focused on reading comprehension particularly with relation to integrating sources of information and utilising their prior knowledge.
As a culminating activity they have been designing logos using differing design elements such as the appropriate font size and shape, colour, layout including white space and ensuring the connection between the logo and the product or service.
Year 8 and 9
The Year 8s have been completing their unit based around “I Am Malala” and the Year 9s of “brown girl dreaming.”
The students have been learning how to locate evidence, create a statement, explain their evidence through literary devices, characterisation or themes, and add a personal response. This will set them up for writing a four paragraph essay next term.
Example of progression from draft to final
Draft Version:
“Malala’s determination is shown when she states, ‘They cannot stop me. I will get my education.’ The diction of ‘I will’ shows her state of mind indicating her strength and power. Her voice reveals the problems we are oblivious to.”
Final Version:
“Malala’s determination is amplified when she declares, ‘They cannot stop me. I will get my education.’ The diction of ‘I will’ forcefully projects her state of mind indicating her strength and power. Her voice reveals the dilemmas the world is oblivious to, persuading people to make a change.”
