Wjec as english literature lt1 exam 17 may 2013

I am doing Sheenagh Pugh and Carol Ann Duffy for Poetry, and Dancing at Lughnasa for the play.

I am so freaking scared!
Dancing at Lughnasa is giving me the heebie jeebies because I don't know how to approach the essay questions on it!
and also the assessment objectives?
how can I ensure that I am hitting all of them accurately
I need an essay structure for how to answer Dancing at Lughnasa questions
SOMEONE HELP ME!
please!!!!! thanks in advance

The questions for Dancing at Lughnasa are always going to focus on a particular extract and USUALLY ask you to draw on something elsewhere in the play.

It's difficult to say a definite way of structuring your answer but I would say focus heavily on the extract in relation to the question remembering to include
-Context e.g the prominence of Catholicism
-The fact it is a play e.g stage directions

And then move from the extract to a connection to the rest of the play.

Hope this helps a little!
