  1. Here's what we discussed:

    Gather 3 to 4 examples for each genre (only pick 2 genres for the project to limit your workload)

    Then decide, in the group of examples for each genre, what are the specific conventions or details you want to examine...

    AND what rhetorical concepts will you focus on?
