News reporters in Year 4

We have explored a range of newspaper articles to prepare us for writing our own based on our topic book ‘Be the Change’. Our articles will be about finding waste around the Ashram Village which is a terrible crime as one of the vows the followers of the village live by is not to waste! We noticed that the articles we read were all to do with the environment and included the following features: a catchy headline, snappy factual introduction, third person, past tense and paragraphs. We can’t wait to start writing our own news reports!
