In this Unit, we are going to use a variety of guided websites to write an article about the Great Fire of London and use this article to learn about creating a newspaper that reflects the news and activities of the time. We will then use this article as a basis to present a media based news story, such as an audio news bulletin, or video report using a range of digital recording devices and software. This week we start with the research, use the links below to research the main features and layout of newspaper reports.
