These could easily be combined into a multipage newsletter booklet if you so choose, or it could remain as a single page assignment.

Whichever level your students are in, I think that there is a little something in here for everyone!
Includes:
- 9 Newspaper Outlines (with one page of lined paper)
- 1 page of newspaper jargon to inspire better word choice
