Planning and Writing an Effective Response to Murderball

Please download the screenshots of the whiteboard from this morning’s lesson. Below each screenshot is a sound file which explores the main teaching and learning points from our lesson.

Your assessment on Murderball will take place on the 22nd November. You will be expected to demonstrate a clear and consistent structure to your response, insight into the text (particularly how the text has been constructed to position a specific response) and an attempt made to add sophistication to your written expression.

On Monday, we will be using formative assessment approaches (peer assessment, self assessment, target setting, applying the assessment criteria) to your responses to the sample questions. The aim here is to give you time to apply the frameworks outlined below. Please see your class teacher if anything here is unclear.
