Weekly Reflection

This week we started working on exam preparation for the first section of the question paper. Looking over my mock exam paper I realised that one of my problems was timing and pacing. In one of the lessons I got to practice writing question 1 in 12 minutes; initially I was worried that I would not be able to finish in time but after the practice I found that I would be able to finish in time. We also looked at the different presentational devices used in question 2. Looking at the different examples I had to think of reasons why the pictures were 'effective'. This helped me to think of specific reasons instead of general reasons that could apply to any presentational device. Overall, this week I got a lot of helpful tips for the exam questions.
