 * Term 1 - Novel Study (Friendship and Family)**



(Cross curricula unit with History)
 * Term 2 - Memories**

//Half yearly examination - week 3/4//



Below is the film task for 8B, 8D and 8G. I re-wrote the marking criteria this year to better reflect the requirements of the task, but Ellie may wish to have the task reworded so students have to give a PP presentation in pairs (to better match with the year 7 and 9 film tasks) so if you are reviewing this task this year, you may like to check with her first. Below is the scaffolded film task for 8M and 8N. It needs to be printed in colour. This will need to be changed if the task becomes an oral presentation (the pictures could be copied and pasted into a PP scaffold).
 * Term 3 - Film Study (Transformation Texts)**


 * Term 4 - Creating Drama/ Intro to Shakespeare**
 * This unit is divided into two parts - improvisation and play building for the first 4-5 weeks, followed by an Introduction to Shakespeare. **


 * //Yearly examination - week 3// **

This task is due at the end of week 4 or very early week 5 to allow marks to go towards students' achievement levels.
