Hi guys,

Here’s the document we were using in class to structure our answers.

Remember, for this question to be relatively straightforward, you have to know your text. If you know the book, and have read your study notes (or both… think of the knowledge!) then you’ll be able to make links pretty quickly to get those final 6 marks.

Homework due for Period 1 Monday – I’ll be marking them.

Good luck!

10 mark question scaffold

In practice this means:

 Identification of commonality (2) (eg: theme, central relationship, importance of setting, use of

imagery, development in characterisation, use of personal experience, sue of narrative style, or any other key element …)

 from the extract:

2 x relevant reference to technique x appropriate comment (1)

OR

2 x relevant reference to idea 1 x appropriate comment (1)

(maximum of 2 marks only for discussion of extract)

 from at least one other/text part of the text:

as above (x 5/6) for up to 6 marks

Final question practice:

By referring to this extract and elsewhere in the novel, discuss the presentation of Duror’s insanity. (10)

By referring to this extract and elsewhere in the novel, discuss the importance of conflict between Duror and Calum. (10)

By referring to this extract and elsewhere in the novel, discuss how figurative language establishes character. (10)
