But the beauty of understanding mode is not in its definition but in knowing the “meaning work” that it is doing—or knowing the purpose of the writing.

Task is sharing the information with the audience.
"If an unknown substitute teacher is present, children are less likely to share personal stories. Children change their view of the tasks of writing based on different aspects of the environment"

Specific category of literacy composition, or what kind of writing it is. (Romance, Sci-Fi, Action, Mystery...) This also helps define who the audience is going to be. ]]> 2018-11-19 15:33:03 UTC https://padlet.com/alyssa_lewis1/key3gacuenfs/wish/305970309 alyssa_lewis1 https://padlet.com/alyssa_lewis1/key3gacuenfs/wish/305970871 What the author intends to use the writing for, are they informing, persuading, or entertaining the readers. This will also help shape who your audience is.
"I want to notice the author’s craft and how that ties in to what kind of writing it is, also called genre, and what the purpose or meaning work the authors are trying to convey, also called mode…."

If you have a certain audience in mind, it will help you have more narrow and specific writing. The purpose helps define the audience. ]]> 2018-11-19 15:36:42 UTC https://padlet.com/alyssa_lewis1/key3gacuenfs/wish/305972088 alyssa_lewis1 https://padlet.com/alyssa_lewis1/key3gacuenfs/wish/305975134 "The first priority is for teachers to be writers themselves. Only in this way do they learn empathy with their pupils, which enables them to give more space to pupils when they are writing and respond more appropriately to their work. They are also then able to model writing ‘live’ rather than repeat what has been rehearsed".

It can be an outlet for them to be creative, and share how they're feeling, or make someone laugh. Students should be viewing themselves as writers so they are more confident to write about anything they want to!]]> 2018-11-19 15:43:01 UTC https://padlet.com/alyssa_lewis1/key3gacuenfs/wish/305975658
