key societal issue)
Adding small extra items (sports results, photos, etc.) will add to the overall
effect of your presentation. This project must be word-processed and should
fit on two double-sided sheets of A4 paper. Further instructions will be given

Student comments (What are you pleased with? What do you need to work on?)
I donʼt really like layout of the first page and organization of the first page but I really like the second
page.
Iʼm proud of my opinionated article. I think I really used my imagination to think of what I could report it
on and how I could report it, from what point of view. Iʼm proud of it now.
I didnʼt really know how to end my front page article and the ending only makes sense if you read it in a
certain way,if you read it in another way you would think more should follow it.
