Format:Hardcover
This book is set out in a primary child friendly format. All pages are extremely colourful and combine many photographs of a school newspaper being designed alongside short sections of key information within the text.
The book follows the entire process of how a school makes it own termly newspaper, starting with a blank template, and showing how the newspaper reporters - children within the school - search out and report the news from the school, and put it into the paper.
A straight forward and clear book, that asks the reader throughout how they could make their own school newspaper, and then provides many ideas at the back of the book.
Format:Paperback
I bought this in preparation for starting up a school newspaper. It was a bit young for my pupils (Year 5 and 6) but it had some good ideas and tips. It was more of a story about how this school started their newspaper.
Having browsed the web for ideas and tips on school newspapers beforehand, I did not feel that this book really gave me anything I didn't already have. It may be more useful if you are dealing with younger children who appreciate the pictures more - I needed a framework I think.
