Thank you so much! I was just wondering whether you have an example of what an A* answer looks like for meanings and representations questions? I looked at the sample answers on the AQA website but they were quite low-level answers.

Hi, I'll check if I have some, not sure if they're A* but I might have some A/B model answers. If I don't have any, I'll look online and get back to you.

Hi, for Child language acquisition, in my exam we had to read transcripts of children's speech so I don't have any notes on the reading and writing part. I do have some on speech/speaking here https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...Atvmzwn9K9AiEN
I'll look for some online and see if there's any notes on reading and writing.

There's a A* notes doc here from getrevising on Child language acquisition, you need to create an account to access it but it's free

There's some model answers here, Student responses with examiner commentary

Yes, definitely. Why wouldn't there be? You might as well just give one question instead of a choice of two. AQA have said that the modes will always be different. The fact that your teacher hasn't told you this is astonishing.

Hey guys, which other notes do you need adding to the folder? I realised I haven't added any notes for these topics:

Language and age
Language and ethnicity
Occupational language

so If you want me to add these let me know

Good luck in your exams!
