Gender revision / wider reading - year 12 and year 13

This is useful for everyone: Year 12, we have finished Language and Gender now, so it's all down to you. https://aggslanguage.wordpress.com/gender-interaction-theory-%E2%80%93-holmes-tannen-cameron-defrancisco/ This is a really useful post on a blog I've recommended before. You certainly don't need to learn all of this, but it's useful background / wider reading - especially for those aiming for those higher grades.

Year 13 - this may be a nice way to ease yourself into your gender revision. We'll be coming on to this after Easter.

Year 12 Homework and Private Study for Tuesday 21st March - 12B only

It would be a good idea to re-visit the Diversity mind map from today ready for next week when we will be coming back to this. Also, remember that we will be re-visiting the Tannen test from last Tuesday.


Some of you may wish to work on that paragraph that we started in class, weaving the diversity approach in as a challenge to the Difference approach. If you want to hand this in on Tuesday I will look at it.


Compulsory homework for everybody: Read about Lakoff in the Gender Theorist Booklet (some information also in the appendices) and make notes ready for next week. You need to ready to apply her theories as we won't be going over it in class.
