Mr. Stone described the common ways nonfiction is divided. He defined essay, formal essay, informal essay, narrative easy, persuasive essay, reflective essay, biographical and autobiographical writing. He pointed out to students the relationship between the students expository writing assignments and the terms under discussion, including main point and supporting details.
