Teachers who plan to invite multigenre reports might wish to review these modes and select those most appropriate for their students and subject areas. It is not a list to hand to children, but a starting point for the teacher who is considering options to present to students and is willing to show children, in conferences and mini-lessons, how the genres work. Individual, bound books for the classroom library. Oral histories and interviews , transcribed and supplemented by background information, photographs, drawings, poetry, etc.
Field guides that describe characteristics of a particular species or community.
