Edward VI

Use all the notes and worked essays I've passed on to Mrs. Porter. Dissemble the worked essays. Break the paragraphs down and see how they have been composed. What information has been included. How is the argument/case developed.
Use you Flagship texts as advised previously. Cover all the sub questions towards the end of each section.
Look at the type of questions that have already been asked in previous exams.
To help yourselves, get on to the OCR website and see if they have the exam papers from 2012 or the examiners reports. It might help you make some decisions regarding revision.

Coursework

I have had no replies from any of you. You cannot afford to let seven weeks go by and do nothing. Get hold of at least one of the authors of your interpretations and see how he/she presents his/her case in full.
The least you should have done is write up your booklist of at least ten for your investigation question and done some research on that question.
For the interpretations you should have plotted out in a grid the arguments being put forward in each interpretation.

Coursework

I need you to post your choice of titles to me so that I know what you're studying. For this week's lessons I want you to find and post at least 10 resources for your investigation and then I want you to go through your 4 interpretations and analyse them. What exactly is each historian suggesting and what evidence is being used to promote that suggested interpretation. You also need to look up the possibility of finding one or all of the texts to read the full story.
