| Description | (May 2009) This unit offers a basis for discussion and development of further units which set out to develop basic platforms for senior English. It can be greatly varied in delivery. Some of the teaching materials are included as examples of ways of working. In implementing the new curriculum, “the change is as much about reviewing how we teach as what we teach” (Rosemary Hipkins). This unit is a work in progress. It is continually re-shaped, but the close attention to developing analysis with confident use of terminology is consistent. Many variations are possible, as are connections to other topics and texts. Some have been noted in passing. Author: Jennifer Glenn |
