Abstract
Sarah Andrew-Vaughan and Cathy Fleischer ask their students to investigate a genre of writing that they find challenging or unfamiliar, recognize the characteristics that define the genre, and then write an original piece in the genre. Students reflect on their process of inquiry throughout and gain confidence by writing in a challenging form.
