The Hero Cycle Assessment
Friday 19 May
Good morning everyone, I have had a discussion with Mr Hanson, and he has been telling me how hard you are all working on your hero cycle assessment task.
In our lessons today you are going to continue to work on your assessment task.
I am here to help you in any way and will be spending the time working with students on their presentations.
I 'd like you to continually refer back to the actual task, so that you are very clear about what is expected in this work.
Remember you are also expected to write showing how your hero has developed and changed as a result of their journey.
