Monday 20 March
This week we are going to concentrate on getting ready for ready for the assessment for US: 2989. Select, read, and assess texts to gain knowledge. (3 credits.)
This means that you will have a question to investigate, or find out information about. You will try and do this task meeting the criteria in the response format as independently as possible. We will work in assessment conditions to prepare you for the assessment.
When you have completed the response and have checked your work, I will give you some feedback on it. This will make sure that you know exactly what to do during the assessment when you will be expected to carry out the task completely independently.
I am also available for tutorials at Monday 20 March lunch time and Tuesday March at lunchtime if you need any extra help.
This work is in the Hapara workspace.
Select read, and assess texts.

Selecting and Assessing Your Own Text
Sunday 5 March
This week we are going to continue to build our skills in selecting and assessing texts using the response format for the US: 2989. We worked on this together in class last week using our work on Steve Biko, and why he was important to South Africa,
We went over what is needed to complete the form correctly and we also discussed the need for specific detail to meet the evidence requirements for all sections.
Now you are going to select your own text using the internet, and work independently to complete this task. All of the task, the summary sheet and the response sheet has been put into a Hapara workspace for you.
We will go over the task together in P1 on Monday so you are clear about what you need to do.
When you have completed and checked your work you will submit for feedback
This will enable me to see how your skills are developing and what further assistance you may need before you are ready to decide on your own topic to investigate
