  1. News Day in an hour Learning objective: • to be able to make a news report together to a deadline

  2. What is NEWS DAY? BBC video - pupils explain what News Day is all about

  3. In your teams… ..produce a TV/radio bulletin of five stories. Each member of the group is a reporter who needs to produce 1 report lasting 20 seconds. How many words in a second? Three! So your script should be how many words? 60 words 3 x news, 1 x sport and 1 x weather report.

  4. What do you do first? • Have an editorial meeting • pick stories to cover depending on which audienceyou are targetting. • Examples: secondary school children; 20- to 30-year-olds; Newsround audience • Choose your stories; assign reporters to each story.

  5. Writing the news

  6. Finished writing? Now check! • Your reports are safe and legal before you broadcast them. • The school is responsible for the material published as part of School Report. Avoid crime stories and celebrity gossip. • Use only first names of people below 18. • Check spelling and grammar.

  7. Practise presenting • Use your normal speaking voice, but speak slowly and clearly. • Smile, it makes your voice sound friendly • Pause between each news story • Time each other – each report has to be 20 seconds

  8. Peer assess • Listen to the bulletins of the other teams and answer the following questions: • Which audience do you think the bulletin was it aimed at? Why do you think that? • What did you think of the stories chosen? Would they appeal to the target audience? • Was it written to time? • What worked well/not so well?

  9. De-briefing What did you learn from the one-hour exercise? What could you do differently or better when you have half a day to prepare on News Day? Did you enjoy yourselves?!
