Introduction
LO 6075′Report back Week 1's diagnostic results honestly, then set this week's aim: apply everything under real conditions.
Naming the weak section out loud (as a class trend, not individuals) motivates Step 2 far better than skipping straight to new content.
Targeted Remedial
LO 60730′Use Week 1's diagnostic tally to decide which ONE or TWO sections need this slot — don't re-run everything, that defeats the point of diagnosing first.
Vocabulary/Grammar weak → re-run a fresh item set in that format, on the board, together.
A text section weak (Prose/Poem/Supplementary) → re-show that text's mind-map poster, re-ask its LOT questions orally, in pairs.
Memoriter shaky → individual 30-second recitation checks while the rest of the class self-tests in pairs.
No single section weak → use this slot for extra memoriter recitation checks instead — it's the easiest mark to lose to nerves.
If the diagnostic showed no single weak section, use this slot for extra memoriter recitation checks instead — it's the easiest mark to lose to nerves.
Letter-Writing Workshop
LO 612 · 60935′Section F is 5 marks, letter writing only — untouched in Week 1. A model skeleton, then two quick practice prompts.
Format compliance (address, date, salutation, closing all present) is graded before content quality — drill the skeleton first.
Full Mock Paper
LO 607 · 606 · 6092 hrsOne full-length paper, same structure and time as the real exam: Section A Vocabulary (10) · Section B Grammar (10) · Section C Prose (11) · Section D Poem (12) · Section E Supplementary (12) · Section F Letter Writing (5). Sit it like exam day: silent, timed, notes closed, in the actual exam hall if possible.
This needs a dedicated 2-hour sitting, not a normal period — schedule it like a real exam, ideally in the last 3–4 days before the quarterly. Mock Paper A, its PDF, and the interactive Test Hub are all linked above — use whichever fits your class.
Answer Review
LO 60730′Go through the mock paper section by section, marks-first: which sections lost the most marks class-wide, right before the actual exam.
This is the last full-class teaching slot before the exam — prioritise ruthlessly.
Follow-up
LO 60110′ + homeThree exam-day tips, then one self-chosen home task matched to each student's own weakest section from Step 5.
Keep this calm and short — the mock paper already did the hard work.
