(Working in multiples of 4 pages means no loose sheets in the newspaper.)\n2.\tOn the front page a title for the newspaper was created and written in a large font and beneath the title a template subtitle was created that said “Issue [blank]. [blank] Term, 200[blank]” allowing a few changes to be made quickly each issue.\n3.\tAlso on the front page two special areas were added - a contents list telling the readers what they would be able to read on each page, and also a ‘From the Editor’ column for announcements.\n4.\tThroughout the remaining pages blank text boxes were added for the reports.\nWriting Reports\n5.\tOnce the template was created then the reports could be written and added.\n6.\tWorking with a small group of children (in our case we had two Yr4, two Yr5 and two Yr6 pupils) at the start of each term they met with a teacher to discuss items to go into the paper. At this stage we also decided the report that might go on to the front page.\n7.\tOnce the reports had been decided, the children were asked to begin to interview people who they would need to speak to, take photographs and write their reports. For each report, two children write their own version, and then the best part of both are taken out and put into a combined report.\n8.\tSometimes the report is edited to fit into the space available in the paper and sentences are removed as necessary. Newspaper reports themselves vary in size and space, and so each issue the pre-made templates for the reports are often resized and dragged around until everything can fit into place.\nEditing\n9.\tOnce the reports had been added to the newspaper, then the photographs that were taken, as well as clipart (make sure this is copyright free), were added where appropriate. This helped to fill the space in short reports, and also provided a visual stimulus to the paper.\n10.\tLast-minute changes were always made as events, visitors and trips occur throughout the term and so it was not until two weeks before the end of term that the newspaper draft master copy was printed off.\n11.\tThe draft master copy was proofread by several people to ensure that there were no spelling errors in the reports. Any mistakes were corrected on the computer, and then a new master version printed off.\nPrinting\n12.\tThe master copy was then run through the copy machine in a special order first page / last page, 2nd page / 7th page, 3rd page / 6th page, centre pages) so that it all printed out in the correct order.\n13.\tFinally it was sold throughout the school, at the local newsagents and also at a school event attended by lots of parents (Christmas production / Easter Assembly / Sports Day). That way as many copies as possible are sold, and money raised for the school.\nView 'Tons of Fun', the newspaper for Southwold Primary School, on their school website \u003C\u0013HYPERLINK \"http://atschool.eduweb.co.uk/southwold\"\u0014http://atschool.eduweb.co.uk/southwold\u0015>\nReport writing for a newspaper article\nIf you want to write a newspaper article then there are a few ways to make your writing stand out as a good report:\n\tThink of your audience and write for them.\n\tUse the 3rd person. Write, “When Mr. Smith was asked, he said” rather than “I asked my teacher”.\n\tUse pronouns where possible instead of repeating people’s names.\n\tChoose powerful verbs that catch the reader’s attention “Susan raced into the lead” is much better than “Susan ran fast”.\n\tKeep the report to the point. Don’t get sidetracked including something that is not necessary.\n\tDo not over-describe in a report - leave descriptive writing for stories and poetry. Readers want the facts in a report, and nothing more.\n\tTry to avoid using “said” too often. “Answered”, “replied” and “commented” are much better","cbCaiooF1HVEXApp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiooF1HVEXApp","doc",52224,"English","# Setting Up\n## Template creation and front-page design\n## Adding text boxes for reports\n# Writing Reports\n## Term planning with pupils\n## Interviewing, drafting, and combining articles\n## Editing to fit layout\n# Editing\n## Adding photos and copyright-free clipart\n## Proofreading and master copy updates\n# Printing\n## Print order and final distribution\n# Newspaper Article Writing Tips\n## Audience, voice, structure, and style","[{\"question\":\"How should the newspaper template be set up for each issue?\",\"answer\":\"Set up an 8-page newspaper template in a desktop publisher, using multiples of 4 pages to avoid loose sheets.
