Morning all,
Unfortunately I'm on a course in Stoke today- many apologies- and I'd like you to do the following:
- make sure that you've watched the BBC resources on All My Sons
- Read the articles about All My Sons from emagazine (log on details for this are below)
By Monday, you need to have written at least 800 words of your essay. To be honest, I'd advise you just to write the whole thing- we'll have a good look at them together before you hand it in as an official first draft, so don't feel under pressure to get it perfect at this stage.
In terms of titles, some of you still haven't told me what your title is. You are making life difficult for yourself with this. However, my general advice, particularly after the discussions we had on Monday, is that to keep it simple is not a bad thing at all. An essay which assesses the extent to which Joe Keller can be seen as a tragic hero has the potential to achieve full marks- don't feel that you have to provide a more complicated title in order to hit the higher grades.
Anyway, apologies for my absence once again, and I look forward to receiving your essays on Monday.
Have a great weekend,
Mr Boulter
