Student of the Month prep. Assigned 9/25, due 9/30 - Minor

You have today to make sure you are fully caught up with everything in Journalism 1.

You should have the following completed:

Funco Pop - Minor
Making a Google Site - MAJOR
About Me Slide - Minor
Current Events Quiz Practice - CE
Important People Slides - MAJOR
News Values - Minor
Media Literacy - Minor
Free Write - MAJOR
Inverted Pyramid & LTQT - Minor

It is very important that you have the assignment below completed and sent to me by the end of the period. I will print them and have them ready for you on Wednesday.

Assignment #2, SotM questions:

Imagine you are working, as a reporter, for the school newspaper and your editor gives you the assignment to interview the student of the month.

1. Make a new Google Doc. 
2. Come up with 12-20 questions you might ask that person who won student of the month
3. Think of 2 other sources you might interview for this story.
4. Come up with 5-8 questions you would ask those other sources.
5. Copy the link, MAKE SURE YOU SHARE CORRECTLY, and make that a clickable link on your Google Site on a new subpage called Student of the Month.

Next class you will be paired with someone to interview them for this fictitious award. You will ask them your questions and they will get a chance to play reporter and ask you their questions. You will record their answers on your Google Doc, and then start crafting a story about them. You will not be asked to interview additional sources, and you will be allowed to make up those other sources answers to your questions. We will talk about good Google Doc preparation next class.
