Text Type

Why that text type is the most appropriate

After each brainstorm you should have your partner's comments with their name on each. For each brainstorm, they needed to write: 2 SPECIFIC comments and 2 SPECIFIC questions. 

#2.  Read the sample WT1 rationale here.  Notice that in the last paragraph the author mentions the mechanical elements, style, and characteristics of the text type she chose (an news article in The Toronto Star).  

Choose your best WT1 brainstorm idea.  For the text type you chose, decide what style, mechanics, qualities and characteristics you will use to showcase your knowledge of that text type in your WT1.

Then describe for me why that particular text type is the best one for the subject matter you are presenting.

etc.....

All 5 assignments should be numbered and on your original Google Document
