‘Hieroglyphics’ Introduction

I have attached the PowerPoint that we looked at in class. It gives you the success criteria for a critical essay introduction.

5A3 Hieroglyphics – Critical Essay Introduction 24.09.14

Once you have perfected your introduction you should think about how you will tweak it in the exam to fit the question.

Hieroglyphics Quotation Sheets

I have attached the quotation sheets used in class today.

Once you have completed the sheets to include the missing information you will have more than enough evidence (as well as some analysis) to include in your essays.

Remember: It is not enough to go into an exam with the quotations. You need to be prepared about what you will say about those quotations and how you will make them relevant to the question. Luckily, most quotations can have their analysis tweaked to fit with a range of questions.
