Newspaper Analysis - Sections


This form is a way of teaching the content of the sections of newspapers. I used it as a classroom assignment and supplied the newspapers. This form asks that students become aware of newspaper construction in that different sections usually contain the same types of information each day, or each specific day. For instance, there might be a weekend section, or a Sunday feature section. The form could also be used as a homework assignment, or as a test.
