ty171 on

DO NOW

With a discuss question you must agree with the statement that comes before it. Whereas, with a do you agree question you can choose whether you agree or not. With this in mind, write a lotus diagram for the following question:

Lady Macbeth is the driving force behind murders that occur in the play. Discuss.

LEARNING INTENTION

  • To clarify understanding of difference between discuss and do you agree questions
  • Gather evidence for the themes of fate and appearance vs reality

SUCCESS CRITERIA

  • I can explain how the contention box in a lotus diagram for a discuss question varies to that of a do you agree question
  • I used my notes and the internet to find three bits of evidence (referenced and direct quotes) for fate and appearance vs reality

TASK

Read this post on embedding quotes. Write a main body paragraph for the essay you have just planned and try and embed a quote as evidence.

DO NOW

Review notes from last class. Why do you think Peter Weir has Frank and Archy positioned at opposite ends of the screen in the scene where they are walking across the desert?

LEARNING INTENTION

  • To develop knowledge of Gallipoli (1981) and how it constructs the Australian Hero

SUCCESS CRITERIA

  • I can explain who the values of Australia in 1981 are evident in Gallipoli (1981) and how they differ from 1914

For homework you were asked to answer these questions

  1. What social values are each of the characters representing here?
  2. How is each social value represented? How do the characters come across?
  3. What type is each social value at the time of filming? Describe why this is so.
  4. Compare how the discourse of The Australian Hero is represented in this film compared to ‘The Heroes of the Dardenelles”.
