Feature Article – Reflection
Hello! In this post we are going to go though the process of making my article! The first part of me and Leo’s journey is explained in our first video. After receiving the survey and laying out the article, we got to work. We worked on our intros, which I got to say, needed some work. We worked on the actual paragraphs, and we added features and headers. We had to shrink down our writing so it would fit in the Google Slide that we were designing the article. About halfway into our work we interviewed Roan and Ajene about our topic, truancy. We gathered all our information and created our article. I have to say it’s pretty good, check it out in the post called, “Feature Article – Done at last,” and see our work of art. Right now we are finishing up our work. And by the way, we also have to do a PODCAST too. I just did mine a day or two ago, and it was, well, um, how do I put this, a little boring. I had to go out in the hallway and shove my head in a box to make the sound sound “podcasty”. But overall this was a bit repetitive, hard work, and a pretty good way to end the year 2019! Have a great holiday everybody!
Feature Articles – Starting the unit
A new unit is here! In writing, we are being journalists and writing about Heathcote school! So far, it’s been awesome! We are working towards writing enough articles to make a whole 5R newspaper! First we had to chose topics. (We’ve been assigned a partner to work with) Our topic was absences, and the law about them. We chose this topic because people aren’t exactly educated on the law of absences. We had to research a BUNCH. We took down notes and websites that tell you information. We scheduled interviews and will soon do them. We lied out the first layouts of what the article gonna look like, and surveyed lots people on our topic.
Overall, the start of the unit was really fun, but really busy. We’ve been doing so much this past two weeks, I may have forgotten to list some of the things we did! I wouldn’t say this unit is going to be hard, but I wouldn’t say it is going to be easy. I am looking forward to the next part of this unit!
