how do you guys feel about like a thematic route, so like doing two poems:
body 1: theme 1, poem 1 poem 2
body 2: theme 2, poem 1 poem 2
body 3: theme 3, poem 1 poem 2

and like using 3 quotes per paragraph so alternating between which poem has 2 quotes vs 1 depending on which fits the theme more?
would probably get a bit confusing going back and forth between the two poems so much and i think it’s better to follow ideas more than just themes

I need some advice on what sort of structure to use for my body paragraphs.
In my in class assessment (multimodal), I did 2 paragraphs, each discussing a different theme, and then an integrated analysis of both poems within each paragraph.
I feel like this might be too complex to replicate in the HSC, particularly if the question requires us to write about a specific poem.

I see examples where people did two body paragraphs, with one poem for each... is this a better approach?

I struggled with articulating my thoughts here, so I hope this makes some sense 😭 Thanks!
