      [quote=D3@n post_id=2018941 time=1617075225 user_id=124020]

      Most of my students read this text in Secondary 1 or 2. There are three plays in this book.
      Students are expected to know the themes and characters of these plays well, and will be tested on a source-based question and an essay question dealing with these aspects. For the latter question, students may also be tasked to do a comparative analysis between any of the two plays.
      Hope your child will enjoy this book as it is an enjoyable read 🙂

      Hi, can you kindly elaborate what do you mean by source-based question and essay question dealing with these aspects. Can give some examples.

      Thank you!

      Sourced-based (or passage-based question) is where an extract of the book is provided and the student will have to answer a question based on it. It will be a specific question and the student can only use information from this extract. This is usually the first of two questions of the Lit paper.
      The second essay question may test the student on the themes or characters of the book, and the student will have to write an essay using information and evidence from the rest of the book.
      I can't really give specific examples because different schools used different texts, but the general focus will be on the themes and characters of the text.
      Sadly there is minimal to zero resources (eg, guide books, 10 years series) available - too niche a market and ironically too wide a coverage for publishers to want to have anything to do with it. One way though, is to source for past years Lit papers of your child's school. But this will be useful only if they have been reading the same text for the past few years.
      Hope this helps[/quote]Thank you, this is useful!

              Hi parents,


              My son did badly for Literature. Despite buying the guide book etc, he just managed a pass. If anyone knows if any gd tutor or tuition centre, can please share with me. Thank you

                    My son needs help in analysis of literature prose. Does any tuition centers provide online classes for Sec 2 students?
