Hi there  :)

The advice I would give would depend on the text, so what text is your imaginative response based on?

Same text that I did!

My advice would be that consider what Kennedy does and why she does it, then discuss why you have chosen to include or exclude this. Also discuss how your response relates to the text and you could discuss your planning process too.

Sorry I can't give more advice, I did this SAC a while back so it's all a bit sketchy now, haha.

I've also attached my imaginative response commentary if you're interested  :)

Heya – I also did Kennedy for my creative piece – Cold Snap like walkec :)

I would suggest:
Find links between your piece and the source texts and organise into key facets to discuss:
Think about style, structure, tone, vocab and readership as starting points.
Depending on what you drew on, you can formulate a piece that describes the things you wrote on.

Also speak to your teacher? It will vary from teacher to teacher depending on the SAC – for us it was a take home component and we had 3 weeks to do it – meaning my creative piece was like 5000 words and reflective commentary was pretty long as well.

I’ve attached my commentary if you would like to have a look too.
