Unseen Poetry Revision

Hello year 13s,


Here are the two documents I promised this lesson. Please read the advice on answering unseen poetry questions before tomorrow's lesson. You will be at a disadvantage without this background understanding.

Here is an example of a good response to an unseen poetry question. I have annotated it to show you why it is good.

Please don't forget that your coursework (second draft) is due this Thursday in Mr Gun-Why's lesson. You can book an appointment to see me before this date to discuss your progress.


See you tomorrow.

RSC's 'Hamlet'

Hello year 13s,


Thank you for spending your morning in the library with us today to watch the live broadcast of 'Hamlet' from the Royal Shakespeare Company. I hope it gave you a different perspective on the text and helped you to understand the relationships and themes being portrayed. I was particularly impressed by those of you who read along for the entire performance and asked for clarification when things got confusing. Well done! I thought the choice of setting to enhance the theme of the supernatural was particularly interesting and I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the production in our lessons next week.

Have a nice weekend,


Miss Ryall
