Goal for staff: Make each day your masterpiece. You have to apply yourself each day to becoming a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better. Only then will you be able to approach being the best you can be.

Goal for editors & advisor: Define success for those under your leadership as total commitment and effort to the team's welfare. Then show it yourself with your own effort and performance. Most of those you lead will do the same. Those who don't should be encouraged to look for a new team. — John Wooden

1. Name a celebrity.
2. “How do you know about this person?” (What news sources have you used to learn about this person?)
3. “What makes something news?” (What's the news of the day? What's important to you right now? Important on local, state, national, international level?)

 Powerpoint!

For other pieces, please read them both and determine which one is news and which one is opinion. Underline or highlight facts and opinion statements in both pieces as supporting evidence. Are there facts and opinions highlighted in both? Why or why not?
