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!
