Home Learning


- Why did you choose the different pictures or background(s)?

I chose classroom as the incidents occur in the classroom. The classroom is the place where Jack gets bullied by James.

- How do they contribute to the elements (plot, setting, characterisation) of your narrative?

Jack being a meek and rash boy, do not know how to counter being bullied by James and do not know how to ask for help. When unable control his emotions after James bullies him, he becomes rash and throws a bottle of paint and by accident, it hits the teacher. Mr Bob, being strict, punishes Jack and jack learns that being angry and thinking rashly could cause him alot.

- How did you make use of the different elements to contribute to the theme you have chosen?

I used the different elements such as characterisation to tell the readers why jack will become angry. Since jack has a rash nature, he would flare up easily. The plot gives a natural reason how Jack would get punish for being angry or how anger can be an expensive luxury.

  1. I found that your story plot was simple but was sutiable for your thematic message. However, I felt that there was a little point that was unclear to me. If the resolution was both Jack and James being punished, I think James will still continue to bully jack. So I suggest that you craft the teacher such that he is strict but reasonable. He found out what happen and reprimanded James. However, he still punished Jack for being rashful. That might be a clearer resolution. Haoyu~
