GCSE AQA English Language Paper 2 Dogs

(0)
A full, unseen paper 2 for exam revision that focuses on a modern extract from a letter to a school thanking them for their donation to the dog charity and another 19th century extract about the problem of stray dogs in London. There is also a writing question attached. I have used this with my own year 11 classes as walk through revision for the GCSE exams, which was beneficial as we added notes to the help sheet and then the students were able to write much more detailed responses, moving securely into level 3.

Macbeth Grade 9 Answer

(0)
A full mark response that provides a conceptual response for the theme violence. The extract used is the scene with the old man discussing the night of Duncan’s death. This responses hits the highest level of the mark scheme as it provides a critical response to the theme of violence, uses a range of judicious quotes and fluently explores the use of writer’s methods. The opening paragraph uses the ‘define the the question,’ then ‘refine’ it to the most significant moment.
