Individual reading and writing - selecting and analysing poems for an anthology - Flynn : Grade Commentary
Flynn has demonstrated thorough knowledge and understanding of the selected poems. The response is coherent with well-structured paragraphs but the conclusion requires more development. Well-chosen textual reference and integration of supporting evidence reflect a personal engagement with the poems. A strong sense of audience has been demonstrated with a few lapses in appropriate tone. A thorough understanding of literary devices and how they create meaning is apparent despite a few errors. Sophisticated vocabulary and sentence structure have been used, and spelling and punctuation are well handled. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade B standard midway through Stage 4.
