Students: You are a newspaper reporter in an eastern city. You are to write an article telling your readers about your topic, making sure to cover what it is, where it might be found, why it is important, who might be involved and any notable names that others might have heard of. Consult your text books to see how your topic fits into history. Two to four paragraphs is sufficient.

Your articles will be published in the Rockridge Repository, R. Pawlak, editor.
Send your article to Mr. Pawlak's drop box, complete with citations. Cut + Paste = Zero.
