For our final Our Town project, we will be completing a class newspaper.
Each person will contribute one news article that will follow the requisites outlined in this rubric.
In an effort to create the best news article possible, we will read about some techniques used in writing news stories.
After completing a plan for the article, you will type it in column-format, just like a real newspaper!
For inspiration, you could go to either of these sites and check out what a newspaper of this time period looked like as far as layout.
See the examples of a 1912 newspaper and a 1901 newspaper by going to these sites:
