Look at the 2 different news sources and look at your notes from each.

Think about:

What similarities and differences can you see?

What similarities and differences can you read?

Can you spot any opinions? Are the opinions the same in each source or are they different?

Use the worksheet below to record your ideas

Using the newspaper provided, choose a major news story and read the article carefully and to the best of your ability.

Make a list of the main elements of the story on some notepaper/word document. Try to keep that list to 4 or 5 points

Level 2 - make extra notes on any opinions or even biased opinions you think are in the article

Your job now is to look at your summarized points and create your own news report based on the information.

BUT...
Your final report must take no longer then 60 seconds to read out loud

You MUST:

Plan and sequence your ideas before you start writing

Write your first draft and check for any errors, making any corrections needed

Using a timer, read your work back to yourself and check how long it took. Over 60 seconds - trim it down. Under 60 seconds - add more

Timing yourself as you read your work helps you to spot any more errors.

Using the internet (PCs/Chromebooks/iPads/Phones/etc) find an alternative news source for your story.

Again, read carefully and list the main points.

You may find yourself repeating the same information but hopefully with either more detail or from an obviously different perspective
