Feature Article Reflection

So in school, our teacher assigned us a partner and we were going to pick a school-related topic, to make a feature article. Our group got together and we came up with a topic. Our first topic was the school bathrooms because they were you know, not-so-good. We were on a roll until we realized there was nothing to write down.

So we tried another topic. That topic was the school lockers. We researched the size lockers should be, wrote down some intros, and then we had a draft. But, we needed much more info. So, we decided to interview our vice principal and my sister. That was a big help. Our vice-principal told us that she agreed that we should’ve had bigger lockers. My sister said that she can’t fit all of her stuff in her locker.

Then we had a bunch of information, but then we realized that we didn’t have any photos so we took some pictures of the lockers to show our readers the size and just so they get an idea of what we are talking about.

Then we thought we were perfectly finished with our feature article, but our teacher thought otherwise. She said that we couldn’t just slap some information onto a page and expect it to be amazing. “You need to organize your work and choose the font, the letter sizing and much more,”.

So we got to work, finalizing our pages, making everything look picture perfect adding the perfect size, and then… it looked amazing! My partners and I were so proud of each other that we had done the job.

Then we printed out the final copy, It was so cool. It looked like an article in the newspaper! That is my feature article journey. I hope you enjoyed!!
