11+Literature

Welcome to year 11 Literature! It is going to be an exciting year where we look at a range of texts. During the study of these texts we will be discussing ideas such as:


 * characters - who are they? How are they developed?
 * themes and ideas - what is the text about? What can we learn from it?
 * context - when was the text based and what was happening at the time?

We will be looking at HOW texts are constructed and WHAT their effect is.

Texts we have studied/are studying (for dates of when, check your planner. I will try and put a copy on here too.)
