Hi everyone,
Anybody concern about the Anthology text that will be used for this summer for English IGCSE?

I think it was Passage to Africa and Explorer's daughter.

my school thinks danger of a single story and significant cigarettes. anyone know what came up jan 2019???


Are you sure the prose texts can come up...? I thought it was only the non-fiction ones
I think still I rise is going to come or maybe out out because it is part of the new specification. Maybe Chinese Cinderella or Young and dyslexic may come. In 2019, between a rock and a hard place came as well as disabled.
the non fiction for paper 1 and prose/poetry for paper 2 (or instead of paper 2 coursework)

Texts that haven't come up yet:
> Between Rock and Hard place
> Danger of a Single story
> Young and Dyslexic?

Texts that could maybe be repeated
> Chinese Cinderella (came up twice, last time in 2017)
> Explorers or boys messing about (came up twice, last time in 2016)
> Game of polo (came up twice, last time in 2016)


texts unlikely to come up:
2019 January - A passage to Africa, Explorer's daughter
2018 June - H is for Hawk, and journey to Bhutan

thx for the brief message :smile:
rock and hard place came for sample assessment material and young and dyslexic came for specimen paper
I think the danger of a single story is quite likely to come up.

Do you have a link to the specimens and sample assessment ? Does that mean they won’t come in real thing?

papers are in edexcelwebsite
I think so because edexcel wont give what they gave in the sample

but they might use the same texts that we have in our anthology and make us compare it with something new

Yall I just think between a rock or danger of a single story will come.
