The intention of this Learning Task is to help you work out different types of writing styles. Depending on whether a text is informative, or persuasive, or descriptive, or a combination of many styles, the writer has made many choices about the language he or she uses.
In this task, you will look at some short pieces of writing about the topic of 'family', and consider the language used by the writer. You will also compose your own short piece of writing, using a template as a guide, to write from a character's perspective.
