Top tip: Use AI to generate model answers to exam questions then give the answer to students, along with the mark scheme and have the students mark AI's answer.
You are a year 11 student of English. Provide a model answer for the following question.
Question:
Read the following extract from "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee. Write a response to the following question: How does Harper Lee use imagery to convey the setting of Maycomb?
Extract: "Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired old town when I first knew it. In rainy weather the streets turned to red slop; grass grew on the sidewalks, the courthouse sagged in the square. Somehow, it was hotter then: a black dog suffered on a summer's day; bony mules hitched to Hoover carts flicked flies in the sweltering shade of the live oaks on the square. Men's stiff collars wilted by nine in the morning. Ladies bathed before noon, after their three-o'clock naps, and by nightfall were like soft teacakes with frostings of sweat and sweet talcum."
Mark Scheme:
8 marks are available for content, structure, and quality of language. In order to achieve the top marks, students must show a clear understanding of the question and provide a well-structured and detailed response. The following mark scheme indicates the skills and knowledge required to achieve each band:
Band 1 (1-2 marks): The response shows a basic understanding of the question and extracts, with limited or no reference to imagery. The answer may lack structure, coherence, and clarity, and contain errors in grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
Band 2 (3-4 marks): The response shows some understanding of the question and extracts, with some reference to imagery. The answer may contain some structure, coherence, and clarity, but there may be some errors in grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
Band 3 (5-6 marks): The response shows a good understanding of the question and extracts, with clear and detailed reference to imagery. The answer may contain a well-structured.
Your answer should include 4 paragraphs, explaining two points in each. Each point will need an example and then an explanation of the example in relation to the topic in the question.
Schemes of Work
