November 19 - Audio piece and article ( Summative 30 pts.)

This Cavalier was found in a folder in the Media Center that was related to the beginning of our school.

So . . . here it is. For today and block day and Friday (deadline is Friday), you need to come up with an article that is enhanced with some other media. It can be a photo slide show OR an audio piece OR a video.

Our mission is to provide news articles for our readers. This will build their visits to our paper and it will help you hone your skills. Learning to write clearly (and concisely) is one of the skills most in demand by employers. See this article that Mr. Howard sent to the English Department yesterday.

Here are some stories that need to be written:

Diabetes Day
Blood Drive

Winter sports reports (talk to each coach and the players about the season)
9th Grade Make a Difference Project

SGA (what are they working on now?)
Winter Fashion at JFK

Poms Competition

Anything Science OR Forensics

Profile a teacher or character around school

Vegetarians here at school

New breakthroughs in science

Anime Club and what they You could also skirt around in the NY Times or the Washington Post and see if there are any articles your are interested in localizing.
