Industrial Revolution Newspaper
This year, we will be writing articles/essays for a newspaper covering the major events, trends & people of the Industrial
Revolution. Students will then format all of this information into Microsoft Publisher for practice creating a newspaper
layout. Knowledge of this software will be useful for students in the future as more classes use project-based assessment
in addition to standardized tests. This is a group project for up to 4 people; students who wish to work individually
may do so. We will be in the computer lab December 16-23 to format our newspapers; this project is completely
due at the end of class December 11, either digitally or hard copy.
