Writing

Today we start to look at the writing part of the National Test.
There are two important points:-

1. To understand the task and plan it according to the instructions (FORMAT- letter, essay etc.; STRUCTURE-beginning, middle, end- paragraphs for every new point etc.)

2. To write the text in as correct English as possible (Grammar, spelling, syntax (ordföljd))

It is important to understand the KEY words in the instruction. We will begin with them today.

After that we will see the example text which is on the internet.


You will get a paper copy of it to look at...

Which of the key concepts were used?
How would you tackle this subject/topic?

Next time (Wednesday) we will look at the examples and then you can start to write yourself..

On Friday we will have both chapter 9 and 10 on the seminar for "Lord of the Flies". All the questions are on the blog.....

There is a tv series on SVT called "the Island".
It shows very well how gentle people have to become hunters to survive.
