advanced english area of study - change / changing identity (1 Viewer)

[angel88]

just wondering if anyone else is doing change / changing identity and what texts they are doing, also any related texts they have used in class or have found.
we studied bend it like beckham, and related texts have included the door, changes by david bowie, cats in the craddle, sky-high. any additions to related texts would be greatly appreciated!!

change is the area of study for prelim this year... so everyone should be doing it. We studied the door and sky-high as well. We didnt watch films or read novels on change but we studied poems like gwen harwoods 'in the park'

errrr no, there's no common preliminary course. there are certain requirements they have to fill but they can do that any damn way they want.

i'm pretty sure that everyone studied these poems. i'm sure i did. I did Looking for Alibrandi, Gwen Harwood's poem 'Barn Owl' and T.S. Elliot's: 'Prufrock'.

everyone thought the texts in the stimulus booklet is boring
especially the door
n then we studied change in john foulcher's poems but other classes did other poets like dickinson

um, for prelim, theres a recomonded course outline, that some schools follow. For example, for ext english, T.S eliot is recomended.

[dark`secrets]

heeeyyyyy, I did john foulcher too! My teacher thought he was hot but he's a good poet.
I also did Maestro (which was a bit boring) and some other stuff that I missed in the beginning of the yr (while i was on hols)

 

[berry580]

I did The Door, Sky-High, The School Caretaker and Looking For Alibrandi.

[Child_of_Bodom]

someone please help me find songs, poems, and pictures (or any other visual text) on changing perspective..............

 

[allira92]

we're doing change too, our text was the turning by tim winton

 

[allira92]

the turning is a collection of short stories and some of them are about changing perspective otherwise you could prob do the sonf conversations with my 13 y/o self by pink or sumthin lyk that

 

[roanna123]
