For the Essay, remember there will not be a specific question for your text. The question will start with "Choose a novel which..." "Choose a play which..." and you will pick the one which matches your text the best.
Remember, Higher English is next week Friday 11th - remember the separate elements of your exam - Close Reading and Critical Reading. Critical reading takes in your Scottish Set Text e.g. Duffy, MacCaig, Cone Gatherers, and the Essay.
No Saturday school this week for English. Anyone who is struggling with studying or needs to ask a question can come in and see Miss Healy next week - if she doesn't have a class she will be happy to give you a hand.

Brilliant literacy work going on in @WhitehillSec Science department - a scientific word spelling bee with S1. This is fantastic work in building up literacy all over the school.
