Identifying the Genre of a Story Worksheet

Identifying the Genre of a Story introduces genre as a way to group texts by form, purpose, and typical features. Learners examine sample covers and connect each one to a label such as poetry, fantasy, nonfiction, mythology, history, realistic fiction, drama, mystery, fable, or fairy tale. Teacher support is explicitly invited in the directions, making the task suitable for guided discussion of visual and title clues. A completed second page supplies the intended matches for review.
