2A1 were asked to (just this once!) judge a book by its cover to test their knowledge of genres and genre conventions 📚 How do you think they did?

1B4 were looking at the development of Shrek as a character for our media unit! We discussed what qualities we expect from an ogre and a hero then moved on to look at the scene where Shrek rescues Fiona to see if Shrek is more Hero or Ogre (or a perfect mix of both!) 🎬

Best of luck to all our Higher English pupils sitting their exam today! Remember to read every question carefully, stay calm and believe in yourself! 🤞✏️📚

Now it’s over to our Nat5 and Advanced Higher pupils to sit their exams today! Best of luck to everyone and remember, you can do this!!✍️🤞

Great time today meeting my 2 S1 classes and learning about different Genres and their conventions - see you all in August! Queen Anne HS QAHS English
