Additional Info
Well done for all your work this term; although plenty of hard work still lies ahead, you're all in a good position with your Latin should give yourselves a pat on the back!
In terms of revision ahead of the mocks in January, the advice on the Revision list should be your main port of call. As it says, revising the Aeneid text in its entirety and being able to pick it apart word by word should be a priority. Follow the advice on the revision list; I've put a digital copy of the blank text in the 'Book 1 - English' section of OneNote in case you lose your hard copy.
I have also put a list of 10 markers in the 10 marker section some of which you may wish to attempt to plan. Also there are 8 mark questions at the end of the booklet; you may want to practice planning/thinking through these as a way of testing your knowledge of the analysis (however, all of this should only be done in addition to revising the text itself, which is the priority).
For language, having a very thorough knowledge of the whole vocab list (including principle parts) must be a priority. Notes for grammar revision on the revision list are very thorough, and it explains where you can find practice exercises. If you would like to practice unseens in addition, I have put 2 in the 'Unseens' section of oneNote with model translations (31. Seneca practice unseens (with answers)).
I hope that this is helpful! Have a lovely holiday and I look forward to seeing you in January. Any questions, ideally try and find me before the end of term.
Mr Smellie
