Current Event Guidelines
Current Event Guidelines
Each Tuesday (grades 8), Wednesday (grade 7), or Friday (grade 6) you will
come to class with a current scientific event published within the last two
months. The guidelines are as follows:
1. Your news must be taken from a printed news source such as a newspaper,
magazine or online database.
2. You must attach the news article to your report. This means you will have to
cut out or print the article (I will print it for you if you send it to my email
address no later than the day before it is due). Points will be taken off for
missing articles.
3. All articles must be typed or in BLUE OR BLACK INK.
4. Your report must be set up in the format shown below.
