Connections Assessment

In week 6 Term 2 you will begin your assessment work for making connections. This task is in your workspace. The work that you have done in exploring and writing about the connections across two texts, one of which you have selected yourselves will be very useful in your work in preparing for this assessment.

We will go over the task in class, and there will be time for questions and clarifications about what is expected. All class time will now be dedicated to the is assessment and you will all need to make a firm commitment to working on this task in your own time.
I will also set daily goals to help you stay on track and to work on your planning questions. This is where your essay will prove most valuable.

Remember to use all of the resources in our workspace to help you develop your ideas as you prepare for this assessment.

All of the work can be found in your workspace.

The Second Text: Kanoro from 'The Weight of Water' by Sarah Crossan

In class on Tuesday the 27 of March we are going to continue to identify the ways in which we can connect our second text,'Kanoro' to the short film, 'The Dump'. We will work together to identify the main  ideas, from both of the texts, then work to describe and explain how and why they they are similar. We will be focusing on developing full sentence answers using part of the question to frame our answer, as well as using in some of the questions the SEX-Y paragraph structure. Each lesson will continue to follow the format of writing in response to the BIG QUESTION task, then we will be continuing with our class novel, 'The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian' by Sherman Alexie. The aim for the week is to complete all written work connecting the main ideas from the second text - Kanoro to our first visual text, the short New Zealand film, 'The Dump'.
