AS Lang Lit - the plan for the next 6 weeks...

This is a 6 week half-term.

For the next 4 weeks, we will be spending Monday lessons looking at Section A of the exam (this is the unseen bit, where you compare a transcript with another text). We will be spending Thursdays revising All My Sons and looking at past questions.
So, you only need to bring All My Sons to Thursday lessons.

Week 5 of this half-term (week beginning 24th March) is a reading and revision week in English & Comms {only - your other A-level lessons will continue}. There will be no AS LL classes that week - instead, you spend the week revising and re-reading. This is because ...

... Week 6 (week beginning 31st March) is MOCK EXAM WEEK in the English department.

We have 2 and a half weeks to revise when we come back after Easter, before ...

FINAL EXAMS:
14th May: ELLA1 (Jerome's half of the course)
16th May: ELLA2 (my half of the course)

A2 Literature - comparing context video

Now updated, complete with cheesy music:

AS LangLit / All My Sons: the ending

'The truth is revealed'

What does Miller reveal about Joe and Chris in this scene? How?
How has their relationship changed compared to the start of the play?

Of Joe Keller's death, Miller says: 'I began the play with that idea and everything in the play moves like the bow of a ship towards that point'. Do you agree - and if so, how does Miller achieve this?

Of Chris and Annie, Miller says: 'They are victims of this disaster.' Do you agree? How might you counterargue?
