Personal/Reflective Writing Folio

The deadline for your first draft is Monday 18th September 2017.

The folio makes up 15% of your overall grade and must be submitted if you are to sit your National 5 qualification.

The first draft must be:

  •  As close to 1,000 words as you can make it.
  • Completed (No half stories/two paragraphs)
  • Include varied vocabulary and be interesting to read
  • Very neatly handwritten or typed up (The final piece must be typed up)

You can bring your draft to class on Monday 18th September 2017 or email it to me at gw14maxwelljill@glow.sch.uk

I will be available to give additional support Wednesday and Thursday lunchtimes. If you would rather stay after school to work on the folio piece then let me know and I will see what I can arrange.

4A1 Performance (Talking and Listening)

Just a reminder that you should be prepared for your group discussion on a section of ‘Sailmaker’ on Thursday 31st August 2017. I will try to listen to as many groups as I can on this date but any left over will have the opportunity to talk on Monday 4th September 2017.

There will be further opportunities for assessment later in the year for those who are absent or do not achieve outcomes on the first attempt.
