Hello sixth graders, I hope you are having a good time today. No class! However, here you something which can improve your learning. These includes Spe. Edc. students.

Newspaper Article Format
 A typical newspaper article contains five (5) parts: 
Headline: This is a short, attention-getting statement about the event.

Byline: This tells who wrote the story.

Lead paragraph:
This has ALL of the who, what, when, where, why and how in it. A writer must find the answers to these questions and write them into the opening sentence(s) of the article.

Explanation:
After the lead paragraph has been written, the writer must decide what other facts or details the reader might want to know. The writer must make sure that he/she has enough information to answer any important questions a reader might have after reading the headline and the lead paragraph. This section can also include direct quotes from witnesses or bystanders.

Additional Information: This information is the least important. Thus, if the news article is too long for the space it needs to fill, it can be shortened without rewriting any other part. This part can include information about a similar event.

Here you have a video which can help create your own newspaper article.

Watch these video and learn more about subject and predicates.
