Jan. 13 -Exam Review (examples of good writing)

Read this: Sport writing with a features twist

Most popular article in NY Times right now

Gaming and a troubled mind

All of these above articles sing with detail.  Tons of it. 

Exam on Wednesday, Jan 19. 
We will have a press conference with a mystery guest.  You will interview them and be graded on your questioning, your written article, and your photos of this guest.  You will have two hours to do research, question, photograph, and post your story.  Remember to look for details that are interesting for the reader and make a story come alive.  You must take a photo.  YOu will be acting like a real reporter because in fact, you are one.

If you are ill on that day, I am sorry to say that you will have a terrible burden of a project.  Please try to stay healthy so you won't miss it.
