Transactional

Expressive
First mode to develop because resemebles speech. Use of first person perspestive and the context is usually based on personal preferences.
5 of 15
Poetic
Develops gradually - requiring skills in crafting + shaping language but is encouraged early on because of its creativity. Phonological features such as rhyme, rhythm, alliteration as well as descriptive devices such as adjectives + similies = common
6 of 15
Transactional
Develops last - around secondary school age once children have finally dissociated speech from writing. In style of academic essays - more impersonal in stle and tone 3rd person used to create a detached tone.
7 of 15
Tranactional continued
Formal sentence structures + graphological features are used to signify seactions and ideas = structure tends to be chronological

11 of 15
Chronological
rely on action words (verbs) are linking ideas using connections
12 of 15
Non - Chronological
considered harder to write - they rely on logical connection between ideas
13 of 15
Theorists Perrera's and Rothery
P - ideas compliments R genres as these include examples of texts chronological and non - chronological
14 of 15
HOWEVER
P ideas contrast with R as non chronological texts being tackled early on at poetry writing
