Creative Writing Exam

Dear Grade 10s and 11s

Your Creative Writing exams are looming and you need to be considering them carefully.

Remember the requirements for each paper:

Grade 10: 2 hours 11 October
1 Essay(you choose from about 7 topics) for 50 marks.
2 Transactional tasks(you choose from 4 topics) for 25 marks each.
TOTAL: 100

Grade 11: 2 hours 25 October
1 Essay ( You choose from about 7 topics) for 50 marks.
1 Long Transactional Task (from about 4 topics) for 30 marks.
1 Short Transactional Task (from about 4 topics) for 20 marks.
TOTAL: 100

Remember that these tasks will be marked according to Content and Planning; Language, Style and Editing; and Structure.

You must therefore provide planning for each task. You also need to ensure that you proof read and edit your work properly before you hand it in. You will need to pay attention to the time given so that you do not run out of time. The Transactional tasks also need to be formatted correctly - you must revise the formats that I gave you in June.

All the best for your exams!
