You need to update your information. There IS no longer the Expanded
Bridging OR the Summative Reflection. If you read the changes, you will see
that not only is there MUCH less work to assess than in the pilot, but since
at the end of each unit you will be grading one summative assessment
(something you would have done ANYWAY when teaching literature, in order to
give a grade), ONE of the other components (teacher's choice) and a short,
meaningful  feedback for the reflection, you are left in the end with not
much more than putting them all together and giving a grade on handing it
in. This will take less than 15 minutes when they are ready for their module
assessment. I highly recommend you read the Handbook (see the Ministry
site).
