The lessons are so well laid out and comprehensive, it is a delight to be able to plug them in to my curriculum. Working within an alternative school, I need to provide my students with clear and specific information, links, and directions. Lesson Planet helps me find it all. Thank you so much!

Help your secondary reader/writers assess texts by studying press releases from Statistics Canada and drafting articles based on them. They then compare the press release, their own articles, and actual news stories they find online. I'd switch the order the first time around with this project and begin with a comparison between a press release and a professional news story. Then they'll write articles having seen quality examples. Discuss the elements of an effective news story. It's a sound basis for strong nonfiction writing. Find the worksheet here.
