Encountering Conflict Practice Prompts
Through the year if we find any interesting prompts or essay questions we’ll post them year for you to use as practice writing. Here’s two on the ‘Encountering Conflict’ context that one school recently used for its Unit 3 SAC.
Choose ONE of the following two prompts to write a Creating and Presenting essay. You may write in any form: expository, persuasive, imaginative, or a hybrid form. You MUST show an understanding of the ideas and issues in The Secret River as they relate to the context. Your piece is to be published in an anthology written by VCE students for VCE students familiar with the subject matter and texts.
Prompt One
‘In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity’. Growth can come from conflict
Prompt Two
‘For every problem there is a solution that is neat, simple and wrong’. Conflict is often more complex than it first appears.
