32. R EADING FOR E DITORIALS - Editorials or opinion/arguments about the day you were born SEARCH using the words “your date of birth Editorial” ( for example, “September 1, 2001 editorial”), or use the words “dateissues” or “dateproblems”. Read an editorial and summarize it in your own words. Make sure you document at the beginning of your article. Remember there are articles in gaggle about how to summarize. Put in ADB. Political cartoon – Search New York Times. At NYT, click on - OPINION -. Put the year first and then political cartoon. When I just tried searching for a date and political cartoon at google, I got present day cartoons. Don’t go to images, they are present ones. Try this New York Times search engine. For example, search with date first again: “ 1999 political cartoon” got results too. Put in ADB. I also went to with the date first and he had hundreds of political cartoons with exact dates. Ted Rall’s blog… but be careful. You might want to discuss these with your parents and look at these at home. Taro, remember you are searching things in Japan; others are searching issues in Germany, but David you were born in the states. However, any editorial can be about any issue anywhere in the world. You have to translate if you are reading issues in your native language. Letter-to-the-editor – You can write this. Read about some of the issues that you understand or discuss with parents. Get their approval. Then you write your opinion about the issue. See instruction later in this PowerPoint. Put in ADB Syndicated Columnist – any article from the NY times written by one of their editors or columnists would be good to put in your newspaper. Just always check the date. If it isn’t your birthday, the year you were born would be OK. Just know the issues at the time you were born. You can copy and paste this because you need just to have one written by another person. Place in ADB.

35. H OW TO W RITE AN E DITORIAL S UMMARY When you read an editorial written by another person, highlight it and copy and paste it to a WORD document. Make sure you have the name of the newspaper, title of the article, author, date, and url. Follow the rules for writing a summary and write a summary of the article. Look at each paragraph and highlight the who, what, when, where, how, and why. Then write a sentence summary for each paragraph. Remember the first sentence mentions the author, title and source of the article and a general sentence summarizing the main thesis of the article. Indicate if this person is for or against the topic.

How will American companies outsourcing jobs to other countries affect America’s long term employment rate? Is outsourcing good for America? Then state your opinion. (cont).

37. H OW TO W RITE A L ETTER TO THE E DITOR Once you state your thesis (your opinion in the first paragraph), in the next paragraph explain the present situation at the time. In the next paragraph, tell what caused the present situation. There might be more than one cause. In the next paragraph, tell what the argument is for the problem or the argument against your solution. In the next paragraph, give your solution for the situation. In the last paragraph, give a warning. Begin with in conclusion.

38. H OMEWORK – IF NOT FINISHED IN CLASS Place four items for the editorial page in the gaggle ASSIGNMENT DROP BOX. I don’t want to hear from the sub that you don’t know how. You have all written your usernames and passwords in your planners. If you don’t finish this work at school, work on it during seminar and at home. Now that you know your gaggle information, you need to put the national, international, and local news articles in gaggle.

39. H OW TO W RITE A F EATURE A RTICLE (1) Definition: a feature article is basically descriptive writing. The author describes an object, person, or event to show its importance and timeliness to the community. Students only need to do one of these so they are encouraged to do the one that is most fun or on which they have the most information. This article does not have to be more than two paragraphs long. If the student just gets notes and does not have time to write the articles, then they just have notes. I really just want them to be researching information and getting ideas. List these ideas in a document and place that document in the Assignment Drop Box. I know this is difficult for you. Be strong. Object: Select a building, painting, vase, skateboard, doll, new art equipment, saddle, etc. and describe its appearance, who made it, its function, its location and how it will be displayed or used. This could also be a new CD that might be released or a video game, system or other electronic devise that was going to be released. It could even be about a new discovery or a flower, exercise equipment, new medicine or old that still works, in other words, just about anything of importance at that particular time.

40. H OW TO W RITE A F EATURE A RTICLE (2) An event: The event could be a movie, movie premiere, art exhibit, opera, workshop, concert, speech, PTO meeting, bizarre, carnival, circus, graduation, riding lesson (Cheyenne, do something on how to ride a horse or groom a horse; Taro, how to write in kanji's; ) A feature article just lets the community know what events are coming up in the near future so people can plan to come. What singers might have been giving a concert near the time you were born. The event might relate to a holiday also or a seasonal activity like picking apples. Sometimes this is just a calendar of events. You could just list things that happened about the time you were born that aren’t considered news. This is the easiest and best thing to do. Place it in a text box.

41. H OW TO W RITE A F EATURE A RTICLE (3) A person: A feature article about a person is basically a biography of that person. Who was the rock star of that time? Find out information about that person. If you were born in an election year, do a feature article on the people running for office. Who won the Academy Awards or other awards that year? Write an article about that person. A place: Travel information about your place of birth or your cultural background is perfect for the feature page. What was happening at Disney when you were born? Were there other amusement parks? Describe them. Was a new school, art museum, or church being built. What about a riding stable? All of you could give a simple lesson on how to count or something in your own language. David, you could give a Spanish lesson in an article or consider a travel article and talk about Madrid or the Prado Museum. I think your telling about places in Spain would be great even if you were born in California because the feature page includes travel information. Naomi, Vanessa, Cheyenne and Jamal, you too can tell of places to go in Germany or in Wiesbaden. You could also talk about German food and/or give a German lesson, but not over the same information. Communicate to make sure you each are doing something different. You can just give a recipe of your favorite food because this project is about you. Just do some research.

42. F UN F EATURE A RTICLES The feature page can also have any of the following: ▪Recipes about favorite foods of that time – Naomi and Vanessa, consider this one. German food recipes. Taro, tell something about a Japanese tea ceremony or how to make tempura or the value of miso soup. David, give a Spanish food recipe –. Jamal, what were skateboarders doing at this time? Doan article on skateboarding: a skateboarders' dictionary. ▪Arts and craft trends of the time or of the season ▪Comics ▪Crossword puzzles ▪Search-a-word (but have a theme) ▪Classified ads ▪Jumbled words ▪Church or religious services or events ▪Movie ads and theater ads ▪Pictures that have to do with the season

43. T EMPLATE FOR W RITING A D ESCRIPTIVE P APER First sentence: Gain the attention of the reader. Be creative. Ask a question. Second sentence: Identify the topic and where the object is or event takes place. Give details and the importance of the topic. Want to party with Mickey and Donald? A family summer trip to the Disney World in Orlando, Florida can be the best party week-end your family ever experienced. Not only does Disney World offer rides, parades, laser shows, and comfort food from every nation, but it also offers a behind the scenes party with Mickey himself. (Tell how and what it costs, etc)
