Mr.STEVENSON'S 12/13 LESSONS.

Wed 19th Sept: Year 13.
Year 13 concluded their exploration of Chpt One of Wuthering Heights with some excellent feedback from the morning group. We managed to move the debate beyond creepy castles and into the realms of 'the limits of narrative truth'.
The reduced pm group scaled the dizzy heights of narrative truth and wrapped up Duffy's HATHAWAY. AS guided them through the poem as a model for next week's exploration of big Ted Hughes.

Thursday 20th Sept: Year 12.
AS introduced Pinter's THE CARETAKER. JH/JB and AS took to the stage for a stunning reworking of this comedy of menace. The group must concentrate on creating some cracking notes as to how pages 1-17 qualify as 'comedy'. If this play is not a comedy, what is it? Students must avoid thinking too much about Brad and his Spitfires.

AS.
