Context essays

[lishan515]

Just a quick question re preparation:

What sort of things do you think we should be doing to prepare for this section.

I am currently reviewing my chosen main text - Dawe's poetry - and picking up the ideas related to identity and belonging/finding useful imagery and trying to make connections between poems 

And I guess after finishing this will continue looking at prompts and brainstorming them and just write (however not necessarily always complete essays (I plan to write probably another 2 complete essays before the exam- don't want to be stale) - but little ideas; paragraphs etc

Do you think the above would be worthwhile preparation?

/What are you doing to prepare for it?

i'm also doing identity and belonging. i have focused on studying the universal truths about identity and belonging and really work out my views and beliefs. know the themes and central characters of the texts well. i dont believe there is that much study you can do, you just have to know your beliefs and be able to talk about them in depth.
