The 826michigan Gazette
Taught by Erik Gable
Ages 11-14, 15 students
Tuesdays: April 29, May 6, 13, 20, with a wrap-party on Tuesday, June 3 (five sessions): 6-7:30pm
Learn the basics of the newspaper industry. From writing news and feature stories to reporting to interviews to layout to all points in-between! You'll also learn all the newspaper lingo. Amaze your friends and parents when you tell them that if you don't find a hook for this lead by deadline, you won't want to claim the byline! After discussing the different types of stories that go into a newspaper, we will brainstorm ideas, research, and write our own paper!
Our goal? To publish and distribute the summer issue of 826michigan's newspaper. Our deadline? We have a wrap-party (invite your friends and family!) on June 3, so it better be done by then!
Erik Gable is the special projects editor of The Daily Telegram in Adrian, Mich., and a former reporter for The Fairfield Ledger in Fairfield, Iowa.
