2. Project Description: Let each of your students become their own reporter and editor by researching and writing their own newspaper! It’s a great way to recap what they have already studied in all of their major subjects including, math, reading, writing, social studies, science and health. Materials needed per student 2 large grocery bags Packing tape Scissors Newspaper templates Place two grocery bags side by side, with the bottom flap faced upward. Use packing tape to tape the bags together front and back. Make sure that the bags do not overlap. You almost want a little gap between the bags. Fold the bag over and cut a small strip (no bigger than ½ cm in width) along the entire bottom side of both bags and long side of the bag (opposite the side you taped). This will open the bags up. Student Newspaper! Step 1, 2 and 3 Tape all along the length of the two bags, front and back.
