English

Question 1: Comprehension

Question 2: Summary

Question 3: Seen Poetry
You should revise:

• Remember

• Ozymandias

• Strangers Forever

• The Poet

• Namaqualand after Rain

Question 4: Unseen Poetry
You will be required to apply the poetry skills and techniques you have practised throughout the year. Your knowledge of the seen poems will also help you when analysing the unseen poem. You will have a seen poem in this section too.

Question 5: Visual Literacy

Question 6: Language

Overall, I would recommend focusing on:

• Answering techniques for each section.

• Poetry terminology and analysis skills.

• Language conventions and grammar.

• Visual Literacy terminology and how visual and verbal techniques create meaning.

• Time management and careful reading of questions.

Remember that the exam is skills-based but focuses on READING as it is your READING paper, so understanding how to approach each section is just as important as revising content.
