In today’s lesson...

We first started with a recap of 'NOUNS'.
There are four different types of nouns, which you need to learn and know by heart.

1) Common- Something that you can touch, e.g. a book, window and computer and many more..
2) Proper- A name - something that starts with a capital letter, e.g. London Academy, Katie..
3) Abstract- Something in which cannot be touched, e.g. Feelings, emotions and God..
4) Collective - A group, e.g. Family, team and class..

Then we had to create a proposal form for our homework - a persuasive text.
Genre:
Audience:
Subject:
Purpose:

1.What style model(s) do you intend to use.
2.Have you created a check-list of the main style features you intend to include.
3.What research do you intend to carry out? What are your sources?

-After we moved on to different types of persuasive devices that we can use in our coursework.

Anaphora - Deliberate repetition of word o t phrase at the beginning of successive sentences, e.g. "We shall" (Churchill), I have a dream (Dr MLK).
Anastrophe - Deliberate use of word or phrase at end of successive sentences, e.g. without warning from FDR's speech.
Hyperbole - Exaggeration for effect, e.g. "There were millions of students in the room".
Tautology - Repetition of the same sense of words. "Unexpected Raid"

What are the AO'S for this course? AO1: Apply a range of linguistic methods (5% of AS) AO2: Understanding how a text works (5% of AS) AO3: Analyse and Evaluate the influence of the context (5% of AS) AO4: The quality of you text (25% of AS

Coursework Process
We then discussed on the plan that we should create for our coursework. Plan your work out , then find the Style model for your coursework , after make sure you create a 'Check List', also do all your research and find out about the topic you will be writing about, the coursework will then be sent to Mr Chatterley, he will talk to you about what you will be needing to fix up and change -Draft-,Bibliography and last but not least Commentary.

*Brainstorm*Notes/ deas*
Why before and why are you still sticking with the same idea.
*Gather information on what you will be writing about By writing this up it will show that you thought about the process carefully.

>We then had to work in twos - one being the interviewer and the other one the interviewee- We then had to select a topic that we had to talk about. E.g. a doctor’s appointment or first day of school. After write the interview down on paper and be ready for the next lesson. Finally, we were then told to create an interview that will be recorded the next lesson.
