Comparing writers' perspectives and methods

In this lesson, we will compare our unseen fiction texts and look at how the two writers' perspectives influence the way they write their accounts of being trapped. We will break down the task and first establish key similarities and differences in their attitudes. We will then use a planning frame to read extracts from the two texts and select our evidence. We will have an opportunity to write up our responses using a framework to support our answers and check our responses against a success criteria and model answer.
