A fun-loving class where writing comes to life through journalism and confidence is built for public speaking. Week 1: What is journalism? How to find a good story to write about. This week will help students to structure a good story for their newspaper. Homework: Write an article about something you have done this week, make it intriguing, and something that a person would want to read. Week 2: Do newspapers still have an impact in our world? How to make your story count and make a difference. Learning what makes a good story and what words can make a story stand out. Homework: Write an article about the place you live. Practice reading this out loud and bring it to class. Week 3: Learning to have confidence when you are speaking. What are the tricks to overcome nerves? We will go over the homework. Homework: Write two articles that you are passionate about and come to class ready to shine. Week 4: Your voice does count, remembering your voice counts, and you can find the courage to share what you are passionate about does make a difference. *This class is subject to change.
