Context Presentations

Hi Y10
I am very excited about your presentations next week; they certainly have the makings of excellent teaching and it'll be interesting to see what you've researched, how you've linked it to the text and, of course, how you have chosen to present it. 
You'll be giving your presentations on Monday and Wednesday next week.
This is what you need to include:
Skilled presentations - 
1.Comment on the effect and importance of the context in which the text was written 

2.Have clear links to the text

3.Present the information clearly so that the aspect is understood

Excellent presentations - 

1.Explain with increasing sophistication the significance of the historical context on the text

2.Have precise and detailed links to the text

3.Present the information in a dynamic and informative way

As a reminder, in this CA you are expected to:
-Respond to texts critically and imaginatively; selecting and evaluating  relevant quotations to illustrate and support your interpretations
·Explain how language, structure and form contribute to writers’ presentation of ideas, themes and settings
·Explain links between texts, evaluating writers’ different ways of expressing meaning and achieving effects
·Relate texts to their social, cultural and historical contexts; explain how texts have been influential and significant to you and other readers in different contexts and at different times

This final point is the focus for these presentations and it's the relate bit that's key! We've worked really well on the first two points with OMAM and you targets from the formative assessment here will of course apply to these texts too. 

Let me know if you have any questions.
