This will be brief and will motivate your audience to open and read more about the topic. • Clip art and/or a thoughtprovvokin question to make your audience think deeply about the topic. • Resources that readers may use to find more about the topic. Our class web site is one example.

Include facts and details from sources that are accurate and supportive. 1. Cite at least one source used in each of the 3 stories. (Suggestions for story content are given in parentheses above each column.) Sources may include Internet site(s) with title and complete URL address, article title(s) with name of book, magazine, or newspaper and page(s), and quotes with name and title of person saying it. 2. Stay on topic. Facts and details must be specific to story heading they are under. 3. Read and re-read your work to make necessary revisions and corrections in spelling, capitalization, mechanics, and grammar. Use brochure rubric as a guide. 4. Save project in “my documents” and on your disk. THE CHART BELOW CAME FROM AN INTERNET SITE. DELETE THIS ONE TO ADD YOUR OWN AND BE SURE TO GIVE TITLE AND SOURCE. HOW TO CREATE A BROCHURE Using this template, you can create a brochure for your classroom or school: 1. Insert your words in place of these words. 2. Print pages 1 and 2 back-to-back onto sturdy, letter size paper. 3. Fold the paper like a letter to create a three-fold brochure (the panel with the large picture on the front). WHAT ELSE SHOULD I KNOW? Keep your text font size to at least “9”, but not greater than “12”. Headings and titles are larger and bold. Font style must be “Times New Roman” or “Arial”. You may italicize titles or use bold text of significant words. DO NOT delete columns from template. Reduce size of font if necessary to make text fit. Save work in “my documents” about every 3 minutes.
