Now that coursework is completely out of the way and we can embark on exam focus with a vengeance, it's time to get the blogs working for us. I will be asking you to blog about a minimum of 4 Abse poems a week and would like you to read each others' comments as well as your own.
See who can get the most page views. A prize for the most visited blog as we leave for exams!
Here are the links below to all the blogs you have created. Most of them are full of thoughtful and perceptive comments and it is good to see you confidently expressing your interpretations and practising your analytical techniques in these posts. This is very good practice for writing in a fluent and analytical way for the exam.
However, it is very disappointing that a minority of you still have not created a blog despite all the homework I have already set on the Larkin poems and on Abse's background. Please undertake to create a blog and blog about the poems immediately otherwise you will be at a great disadvantage when it comes to revision as your immediate responses to these poems will have faded by then.
All of you now please make sure your blogs about all Larkin poems are up to date - do a few a week or you will have too much to do over the Easter holiday revision period. But have a read of what people have already written and enjoy! By all means, comment on each others posts if you enjoy or agree with a post or be prepared to ask a question or challenge a view (politely). Make this into an interactive resource that you can use to support each other in the run up to exams.
