Period 3 - your first drafts of news stories are due on Tuesday, 9/29 via google.docs. If you send it to me early, I will try to get it back to you before Tuesday.
Reminders -
The inverted pyramid - most important info in your lead ----> to the least information
the 5 ws (who, what, when, where, why) and H (how)
student voice/teacher/staff voice/community voice in the form of quotes
even transitions
it should be objective NOT subjective... there is no room for your opinion in news... only the voices and opinions of others... you are a mere reporter, not a columnist
an active headline that gets right to the point
Do not use the first (i) or second (you) person.... only the third person, objective
Looking forward to your drafts
new news added: Flu vaccination, the student draft letter, terrorist scare, talent pageant
