Comment
This is a clear response that makes some good points. They tend to be rather undeveloped and there is not much focus on the methods the writer uses. There is a tendency towards re-telling the story rather than focusing on the task. Some evidence is used well although one quotation in particular is unnecessarily long.
For Grade 6
- More focus on language and techniques
- More detail on how Brontë presents Rochester in this extract and elsewhere in the novel
- More precise use of embedded evidence
