Lesson outcome

I can explain how Blakemore uses language, form and structure to express ideas of multiculturalism.

Show transcript
The metaphor of a hair brush suggests community together, all in place. The juxtaposition of inclusive and uncomfortable images and words could suggest multiculturalism isn’t fully accepted. The free verse nature of the poem could link to the idea that people are free to be who they want to be. The use of rhymes, half-rhymes and no rhyme could link to ideas of multiculturalism.
