Wander the World: Extra! Extra!

Extra, extra read all about it!

Wander_4 As a journalist for your school newspaper, you are assigned the job of writing a newspaper article about one of the summer reading books. This isn’t just any article. You are going to interview your favorite character. A good journalist must begin with six key questions: who, what, where, when, why and how. Before you plan your character interview, find an article in the St. Petersburg Times and answer each of those six questions. Now that you see the pattern for a newspaper article, write an article about your favorite character. Share your article with other students across Tampa Bay here at our Summer Times Reader Blog.
