Real Exam Time (RET) Task (Recapping)
5 mins 1. How many questions do you choose from… how many do you answer? 4. How long do you spend on this question in the exam… and what’re the timings? 2. What do we KNOW about the phrasing of the question? What’s always the same? 5. What’s the paragraph structure you should be using? 6. What’re the skills the examiner’s looking for you to demonstrate? …and which are most important? 3. What could the question ask about? What aspects of the text? Quick recap of question formats and exam processes

Real Exam Time (RET) Task
10 mins POINT: Make a thoughtful point about the poem EVIDENCE: Provide good evidence from the poem EXPLANATION: Analyse the methods and zoom in on key words. LINK: To the wider themes, context, poet and other poem. Teacher models construction of a model paragraph. Watch Me Work: We’re going to jointly model an effective exam-style paragraph based on the work so far…

Real Exam Time (RET) Task
10 mins In ‘Ozymandias’, Shelley presents time as more powerful than humanity. For example, the final line of the poem refers to ‘the lone and level sands’ that ‘stretch far away’. The ‘sands’ are both literal, with the wearing away of the statue symbolising nature outlasting people, and also act as a metaphor for time. What Shelley is suggesting, it seems, is that time outlasts and overpowers humans, that we are limited by our own mortality and our limited human perspective. This is an idea presented similarly by Owen in ‘Exposure’. Does it fit the PEEL structure? Does it link ideas, themes, images and comparisons? Does it fit the Level 3 criteria – clear and explained? Teacher models construction of a model paragraph.
