It all happened when my penis fell off. Scotch College ENGLISH DEPARTMENT SAC 6 Text Response Unit 4 Outcome 1 Below are the essay questions from which your class’ essay questions will be taken. On the actual day of the SAC, you will be given one Part 1 question and one Part 2 question from this list for each of the prescribed texts. During the double writing period you will write on ONE of these essay questions only. The double writing period will be ‘closed book’ and held under exam conditions. That is, no notes are allowed into the classroom but you may bring in a dictionary. In the meantime, you should select your texts, look over the questions and plan for them. Teacher guidance can be sought but they are not allowed to mark or specifically check pre-written complete essays. General guidance only can be given.
