where can I learn about the sign on the four?

So I go to a pretty bad school and as the end of the year is in a week (3 English lit lessons left) we've only just reached chapter 9 with very little annotations and no context whatsoever. So, my question is where can I learn more about the sign of the four and where can I get help with my annotations?

Bitesize have some stuff, see if there are any sparknotes or GCSE revision guides. Also Mr Bruff (youtuber) has a video.

Literally Google "the sign of four revision" and there are loads of resources with themes, analysis, characters etc. Some on websites others on PDF format. Also from this search you should see other YouTube videos including someone who's put a video detailing how they revised.

There's even this old thread with revision notes:

Good luck and hope this was helpful :smile:

You're welcome!! 🧡🧡

Yeah sometimes you've gotta get a bit creative with it. I'd defo recommened getting a GCSE study guide as well as the other suggestions, simply because it's supposed to be tailored to your course/level.

Maybe if you you're finding the class to be slow etc. do all the work yourself, ask for any essay questions/activities and then give to your teacher to mark. Since you've only got a few lessons left make sure you know what level you are at and what you need to be working on (ask/confirm with your teacher your targets) before your school breaks up for summer.
