Just did my assessment of Friday ☹️ will use this on my mock though

[@Ummayubtalhaismail]

@Mr Salles Teaches English So just to confirm on the structure... You do OTTER for the first (favourite) poem, Then about 3 sentences to compare both, Then do OTTER again for the other poem, Then a conclusion.

[@MrSallesTeachesEnglish]

Exactly

Hey sir! Could i apply this to the WJEC examination board? And could i use this technique for unseen poetry too. Thank you for everything.

[@MrSallesTeachesEnglish]

Yes

[@nikolaeva07]

im aiming for a 4 so pls give me more tips

[@AyubHassan07]

@Mr Salles Teaches English Where is context meant to be in this though? Should I just do a couple PEACE paragraphs instead of the two 'T's (which stand for technique)?

[@MrSallesTeachesEnglish]

There is no real requirements for context in this question. The context is the poem itself. For example, if you know that exposure is written about Owens experience in the First World War, that’s half of sentence, and is all the contacts you need.

[@muchogustos]

Will this structure also work for the Love and Relationships Section of poetry? Also does it matter if you decide to start with your other poem first rather than the poem given to you?

[@MrSallesTeachesEnglish]

1.Yes 2.No
