Reviews

Right then folks - your final bit of coursework will be to complete a film review of 'To Kill A Mockingbird'. In order for us to do this, you'll need to have a really good knowledge of how film reviews work.

So, to start with, you'll need to find a bunch of film reviews (round about three will be enough), ideally on the same film. So, you can go to dedicated film review sites like www.rottentomatoes.com, or general review sites like www.metacritic.com. These are blocked by school though, so look at other sites, such as www.empireonline.com, or even newspaper sites (although tabloid reviews will be a little short and simple for our purposes, although it won't hurt to look at them). Create a special folder in your English folder, and save a bunch of reviews there. When you come to  me on Monday, I'll want you to have printed at least two - but feel free to work with your mate(s).

If you get fed up with this, and fancy something different, then I'd like the old favourite - a graph! Venn diagram, line graph, you name it - I need a load to redo the display in my room, and you pack of monkeys are going to help. If you find Excel a little rough going, then you might want to check out some of these sites you can find out here. Some sort of immunity badge will be the prize for the best one, although you don't have to do this for your homework; your homework is to bring me some reviews on Monday.
