What is a genre, and why is it useful to know the genre of a reading selection?

What will be an ideal response?


Genre: a general category for a specific form of media (or reading material) that helps define
its purpose and subject matter. Answers may vary for the second part of the question (why
it's important to know the genre), but the textbook says that genre has a strong impact on the
author's purpose. Students might also mention that knowing the larger category or topic
gives perspective over a selection.
