RUBRICS FROM 2019 NSC PAPER 3 EXAM  \nPREAMBLE  \nThe English Paper Three Resource pack has been compiled from the CAPS Document, the Department of Education Guidelines, various support materials and other guidelines , textbooks and various online sources.  \nThe purpose of the resource pack is to assist educators in the teaching of paper three. Learners need to be familiar with all genres of writing and all transactional texts. Learners need to be taught the writing process from drafting, editing through to the final product. In addition, learners need to be given constructive feedback from the educators in order to assist them to improve their writing skills.  \nPaper 3 is weighted more heavily than Paper 1 and Paper 2, which is out of 70 and 80 marks respectively, as paper 3 is out of 100 marks! If you apply yourself and focus on particular aspects, you can perform well in this paper.  \nESSAY WRITING GENRES  \nThe Narrative Essay  \nNarrative writing is largely the presentation of a series of events (a story/a past event/fiction) in some meaningful order. The following are SOME possible features of a narrative essay which can be remembered with the acronym-SPICED:  \n−  STORY LINE must be convincing.  \n−  PAST TENSE. Use the past tense usually, but many authors use the present to create a sense of immediacy and directness.  \n−  INTRODUCTION. Use a captivating introductory paragraph.  \n−  CONCLUSION. Ensure that the ending is either satisfying, or ambiguous, even confusing, but never predictable.  \n−  ENGAGE. Use direct speech if you want immediacy or to empower a character, indirect speech if you want your reader to be distanced from the speaker.  \n−  DESCRIBE. Use descriptive elements where necessary, but good stories are very compact and writers remove every word that does not have a purpose.  \nDeveloping a plot into a storyline  \n\n|  | COMPONENT | Definition or use |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| 1 | EXPLOSION / HOOK | A thrilling/stirring event or problem to stir interest immediately. |\n| 2 | CONFLICT | A problem or challenge for the protagonist. Sometimes the problem or challenge can come from within a person: weakness / illness |\n| 3 | EXPOSITION | Background information so that your characters are understood. |\n| 4 | COMPLICATION | One or more problems that prevent your character from attaining agoal. |\n| 5 | FLASHBACK | Remembering something that happened before the story took place. |\n| 6 | CLIMAX | When the developing story reaches its peak. |\n| 7 | FALLING ACTION | Releasing the action of the story after the climax |\n| 8 | RESOLUTION | When the conflict has been resolved. It does not have to be a solution – It can be a way of dealing with the problem. |\n\nThe Descriptive Essay  \nDescription is both practical and or","cbCaibTbEvAM6uzm","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibTbEvAM6uzm","pdf",1165129,37,"English","# Essay Writing Genres\n## Narrative Essay\n## Descriptive Essay\n## Reflective Essay","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the English Home Language Paper Three resource pack?\",\"answer\":\"To assist educators and learners with the writing process by supporting teaching of Paper 3 and improving learners’ writing skills through structured guidance and feedback.\"},{\"question\":\"Which types of writing are learners expected to be familiar with for Paper 3?\",\"answer\":\"Learners need to be familiar with all genres of writing and all transactional texts, and to be taught the full writing process from drafting and editing to the final product.\"},{\"question\":\"What key features are highlighted for a narrative essay?\",\"answer\":\"The pack outlines possible narrative features using the acronym SPICED, including a convincing story line, appropriate tense use, a captivating introduction, an effective conclusion, engaging speech, and purposeful description.\"}]","English Home Language Paper 3 - Resource Pack | PDF",1790402913,93]
