Secondary School Literature

[icecubism]

What are the usual books that will be used for Literature?

Are those books all the same for every school?
I don’t think so… So sorry, rephrase the question:
What are the usual books that will be used for Literature in Dunman High School?

Hi icecubism, why don't you post your question in the DHS thread: http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=5346 You'll be able to get advice from current parents and even students from DHS.

Hi everyone. About 1 year ago, I posted in this thread. Anyone remember me ?

I took Elective Literature as my combined humanities for 2010 O level. Got B3.

Just to share a small tip. I write my answers in the PEEL format, which is similar to the format used in writing Social Studies essays. Point, Evidence, Elaborate, Link. I find that writing the link down helps to make you focus on the question. Otherwise at times, you might elaborate additional details which aren’t related to the question.

Welcome, I hope it helps Although I used simple words, but by elaborating on details, I'm still able to score decently. Try to at least write about 1 1/2 page for each part of the question.

Wow, I didn't know PEEL is needed in Literature.
Glad I used it by coincidence.
