This learning resource focuses on analyzing and creating genre elements within true crime texts. Students engage with four distinct genre stations: Journalistic Reporting, Personal Narrative, Mystery Fiction, and Documentary Script, each allowing them to explore how different literary styles convey real events. The learning objective is for students to identify and apply elements from these genres to better understand the narratives presented in true crime stories. Detailed descriptions of the characteristics of each genre are included, along with various tasks such as writing assignments, annotation prompts, and reflection questions. The resource also encourages comparisons between genres and invites students to express their creative choices regarding genre application in storytelling.
