Happy holidays to all fellow teachers and students. I was on a blogging hiatus for a while but now, I’m back with some juicy info on the new English Literature Component. I blogged about this in my previous post and it is now confirmed that graphic novels will be taught as well.

F1
–Black Beauty by Anna Sewell
–Journey to the Centre of the Earth by Jules Verne
–The Boscombe Valley Mystery by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

So far, they have yet decided on the novels for Form 3 and Form 5 so we’ll just have to wait and see. Based on the circular from the Ministry of Education, the Form 1 & Form 4 would study these texts next year, followed by the Form 2 & Form 5 in the 2011 and the Form 3 in 2012. The assessment of the new lit component would be carried out in 2011(PMR) & 2012 (SPM). I’ve also been informed that the State JUs will conduct literature workshops for all the teachers in January 2010 so hopefully, we’ll be able to absorb as much input as we can on this matter. I’ll update more on this soon. Toodle pip!
