With Q5 and Q6, I'll be doing about 1-2 pages, and I'll mainly use DAFOREST ( direct speech, alliteration, facts, opinion, rhetorical questions/repetition, emotive language, statistics, triples ).
For Q1,2 & 3 I'll do 4-5 comments on what the question asks, backing them with quotations. Then Q4 I'll do 5 comparisons, also backing them up with quotations. :smile:
ok sweet, thanks for the help, i'll bare that in mind for tomorrows exam!! :smile:
How did you find it? :smile:
Tbh I'm not too sure, I answered everything I might have dropped a few more marks on the 8 markers than what I wanted to :/.
But what your wrote yesterday definately helped me so thanks, got my maths resit tomorrow now :tongue:
