Assignment: Now that you have written your questions for your newspaper article, you need to start doing research on them. What information do you need to look up on the internet?  Make sure you write the sources that you used in your notebook (Story Drafts Section) so that I will know where you got your information. remember that first hand sources (teachers, students, etc.) are the most important.  You should be ready to start typing your article next week.  Deadline for the 500 words is September 21st.  We will be editing that day in class!

Your article should have a strong introduction, a body that gives the meat of the inforamtion and then a conclusion.  You should flow through the entire story and not get off-topic.  Make sure that you are targeting what you need to answer as I will be looking back at what you are writing and comparing it to your 5WH.

If you are doing a section that does not require an actual article to be written (cartoon, jokes, survey, Middle School tips), then please be working on what you need to do.  If you need to schedule a time for an interview with a teacher/administrator, please see me before you go.
