Other high school newspapers


What is your favorite newspaper front page? Why?
CRAZE Around the World Issue, I liked the simplicity of the page, it was simple but still conveyed what the paper was about.

Which paper immediately grabbed your interest? Why? 
CRAZE, The colors on the front are pale and simple and that stood out amongst the bright and complicate surroundings.

What is your favorite headline from that newspaper? Why are you interested in it? 
DIY: HENNA I was interested in this because of the fact that it was a DIY, I liked that the newspaper was teaching something pretty cool and I, just in general, have an interest in henna.

How many stories are on the front page of your favorite? 
One

What do you notice that all newspaper front pages have in common? Look at design, size of photos, size of story text, etc.
Moat have a dominating photo, at least one headline, most have some other text, there are usually one or two stories that dominate the froth page, text other than headlines is small.

What are things that vary (or are different) on the front pages of different newspapers? Look at design, size of photos, size of headlines, etc. 
Some papers don't have any text other than the headlines, the fonts and text sizes are different depending on what the newspaper feels is important.

Were these similar to what you saw last class when you looked at daily newspapers from around the world? 
In someways they are he same but in other ways they are different.
