To complement PhilpotNew Unit 2
Discuss it in detail, make sure you know all the vocabulary and key concepts.
Treat every text as a possibility to practice for Paper 1, i.e. detailed annotation and thinking of a possible guiding question to go with it (if the book has not suggested one). After annotating on your own, discuss with some classmates to pool your ideas. Balance-wise, pay a bit more attention to non-literary texts than literary ones. Save annotations in your portfolio.
Every time you go off the book to read / research something online (as directed by a task in the book, or me, or because of your own interests), share useful / interesting findings on the blog.
Set yourself homework at the end of each discussion lesson. If you have not done this, follow the teacher's guidelines (but for becoming a self-directed learner, setting your own is more useful).
