I am also giving you a handout on some ideas for news stories. You do not need to choose one of them, but you must make your selection and begin gathering your notes, including a quote, etc. Your story is due by Friday, November 16. There will be no class time to write. The rubric for your story should follow the criteria for newsworthyness, a well-written lead, inclusion of at least one quote with proper attribution, reported language and very, very importantly, correct grammar, spelling and punctuation.
