How does everyone revise for 'The Crucible', and the unseen texts? :s-smilie:

I'm not doing 'The Crucible' instead I'm studying 'King Lear' so things might be a bit different! In terms of revision:

I made an act/scene account for the whole play to learn in order to wider reference and establish context easier. These might be found online too.

Quote flashcards - an important quote, draw a photo to help you remember, write themes next to it and expand the actual quote. Really good for wider referencing, how clearer can you show the examiner you know the play inside out by being able to wider reference to a specific quote to back your point being made? Making these you skim read the play again, thats revising too!

Terminology sheets - especially for harder terms to remember such as anaphora, sticomythia, hyperbaton etc

Unseen:

Terminology sheets again

Structure

There's less revision on this side because it's about technique not knowledge.

Oh and for both sides, practise answers are another great way to revise!

Hope this helped! :smile:
