Albanese’s victory speech as a crafting texts piece

Mentor texts are helpful in teaching students how themes (or ‘Frameworks’) can be explored through various genres of writing, but looking sample pieces are also really helpful too!

I heard snippets of Anthony Albanese’s victory speech after the election and I thought it ticked so many boxes as a crafting/creating texts piece – it’s very clear in its purpose, it audience, and it’s crafted to deliver a message in a very specific voice.

So here I am, reacting to his speech as though Anthony Albanese’s speech is a crafting/creating texts piece!
