I just reviewed what we have so far and I'm missing almost the whole news section and the sports pages. Please email me the pdf files of the these pages.
On Monday, we will beginning the next issue and moving on. What we haven't finished, will be finished at lunch. By Wednesday...
Those students who didn't participate equally will be talked to.
Moving forward we will be laying out as things are finished.
As a class we will be working on feature and then investigative feature in the month of December...
However, we will be still producing a paper so the News section and all other sections will still be producing material for the paper. A few people will be shifted from the sections they are on... I will inform, so please stand by.
Once the paper actually comes out, we will be debriefing about the process. How does it look? Where were our misteps and issues? How can we do it differently next time?

Captions:
There were no captions on some pictures, weird phrasing in captions, placement was to spaced apart in some captions, also the font was wrong.
Articles:
were grammatically incorrect (past, present tense, ordering, etc.), there was a range from few to many spellings errors, inverted pyramid not used in some cases.
Headlines:
misspelled, not catchy (plain), to long, wrong font
layout errors included: tops of pages (section, page number, size, etc.), bi-lines, spacing, font, etc.
Overall I think we could have done a better job organizing as a whole class.
For next issue I think we should have overall people fore the paper, proofreading, overseeing all articles, making sure formatting and everything is right.
For next time I think we should include more of the school. not just the people in our class, nobody wants to read about us and its a little boring.
Also, we should decide what is appropriate for the paper. I thought the drug article was a little inappropriate for the 6th graders and gave a little too much information out.
