8 ELLB2: The Assignment (Part B) Candidates write creatively on one or both of their chosen texts ( words) Response should in some way complement the chosen theme Examples based on theme of conflict in Brontë and Rhys Jane – a letter to the former Miss Temple Rochester – papers to be read after his death, explaining his actions to his children Richard Mason – speaks at a memorial service for his sister
