Over the next few days, we're gonna be focusing on
- 00:04 - 00:07
biographies. Now, underneath this video, there's a text about Gustav
- 00:08 - 00:09
Holst. Here's a picture of him.
- 00:10 - 00:11
Can you remember who?
- 00:11 - 00:12
Gustav Holst Waas.
- 00:13 - 00:14
How do you think?
- 00:16 - 00:16
That's right.
- 00:17 - 00:20
The stuff host composed the planets, which were pieces of
- 00:21 - 00:23
music that had tightened off all of the different planets
- 00:24 - 00:25
on dhe.
- 00:25 - 00:28
We heard about that in the in one of the
- 00:28 - 00:32
chapters of Cosmic, where the music that was playing while
- 00:32 - 00:34
Liam was on hold was from the planets.
- 00:36 - 00:39
So what I'd like you to do today is I'd
- 00:39 - 00:42
like you to read that text about Gustav Holst.
- 00:43 - 00:43
It's a biography.
- 00:44 - 00:47
There are some questions for you to answer as well.
- 00:48 - 00:51
But before you answer the questions, I would like you
- 00:52 - 00:55
to make a list off all the things that you
- 00:56 - 00:59
think should be included in a biography, because we're gonna
- 00:59 - 01:01
be writing some biographies in the next couple of days
- 01:02 - 01:03
about some different people.
- 01:04 - 01:08
So read through the text and decide well what makes
- 01:09 - 01:09
it a biography.
- 01:10 - 01:12
What type of things do we need to include?
- 01:13 - 01:17
What type of language do we need to include think
- 01:17 - 01:19
about whether it's formal or informal.
- 01:20 - 01:23
Think about the vocabulary that's used on.
- 01:23 - 01:24
What I'd like you to do is make a list
- 01:24 - 01:25
of that.
- 01:25 - 01:28
So you've got your success criteria before we actually start
- 01:29 - 01:32
writing. So have a little go with that on, then
- 01:32 - 01:35
answer the questions about as well.
