Lovely Year 8's
You need to continue to work on your written piece. It is very important that you use A F O R E S T techniques to improve the quality of your argument. I have given you all a writing frame to use and this is for guidelines - you can alter this if you wish. Most importantly, use the research you have done for your presentations on certification and censorship. There are 2 very strong arguments for / against 16 year olds and censorship - use facts / opinions to balance the argument and come to a clear conclusion.
REMEMBER - you will be assessed on the DETAIL of your work and the ACCURACY - spelling, punctuation, paragraphs ARE IMPORTANT - you have to DRAFT your work for both detail and accuracy. Make it count - use your time wisely and do your best. The written work will be kept on your file and you have all worked hard with research and I want your written work to reflect the FANTASTIC presentations that you did - considered, mature and persuasive.

CENSORSHIP PRESENTATIONS
Congratualtions to all of you for your hard work and commitment with your presentations. Again, you have impressed me with how hard you work on all the tasks I set you. What was most spectacular this week is how mature you have been as you balanced and considered the arguments for / against certification of films. I found you all very persuasive in your presentations as you really knew what you were talking about. REALLY WELL DONE!
I always look forward to our lessons and I think you are all doing really well.
We now need to move onto the written component of this module. This will involve you all writing about censorship. You will use your research and ideas to help you with this. The title is, 'Should 14 year olds be allowed to watch / read anything they want to?' You have already been preparing for this and now need to structure your written work and use lots of examples as you argue for / against this statement. You will conclude with your own opinion.
After all the hard work this term, I now suggest that we aim to get the written work completed so that we can have some film / celebration lessons at the end of term. I am hoping to get hold of 'Stone Cold' for you. .... & yes, we are overdue some / many lessons in the beanbag rooms!
DOES THAT SOUND LIKE A GOOD IDEA??
DO YOU FEEL YOU ARE LEARNING & PROGRESSING IN ENGLISH? Let me know your thoughts and feedback.
