The task will ask you to construct 2 short creative pieces by naming GENRES. For each task just do the following:

The 2 pieces

*Look at the genre
*Decide on 5 conventions you would find in this genre.
*Write a piece which includes these conventions.

SIMPLE!

*If the question requires you to take close inspiration from the stimulus text, make sure you include 3-4 details from the stimulus text.

The Commentary

*Write one big paragraph or two smaller where you talk about all of the genre conventions you included in your work. Name each convention, give an example, analyse key words with terms and discuss the effect on the reader.

*Write one big paragraph or two smaller where you talk about all of the attitudes you included in your work. Name each name each attitude, give an example, analyse key words with terms and discuss the effect on the reader.

THE ABOVE IS AN ABSOLUTE MINIMUM.

The more able students among you should attempt to add more paragraphs.

*Write one small paragraph where you talk about all of the influences from the stimulus you included in your work. Identify each influence, give an example, analyse key words with terms and discuss the effect on the reader.

*Write smaller paragraphs where you identify any other deliberate language choices in your work. What did you do, why did you do it, give an example, analyse key words, discuss effect on audience.
