small medium large Home News Tribune Contest As you know, you are expected to respond to a Home News Tribune Student Voices Article Contest once a semester. If you haven't participated yet, that means this month you are required to participate. A review of the Contest Requirements: -editorial must be typed and double spaced in Times New Roman, size 12 font -editorial should be between 300-400 words; entries canNOT be over 400 words -All entries must include the following information: -Teacher's name and contact number (Ms. Maffa, 732-613-6800 x4291) School name and address (Churchill Jr. High School 18 Norton Rd.

The winners are selected by the Home News Tribune editorial department. How the student hands in his/her editorial: Students must meet the due date for the editorial. No late editorials will be accepted. Students will bring in 2 copies - one to be submitted to the Home News and one to be graded by the teacher. Editorials will be graded by teachers based on two FCAs: 1) Answers the question in a clear and organized way 2) Carefully proofread Students will be working on these editorials at home, on their own. No class time will be given for this assignment. Editorial Prompt for this month (for the January edition of the Home News Tribune Students Voices Section): Most children today are fortunate enough to have computers and internet access inside their homes. Of course, being able to reach the outside world also means the outside world can reach them, and that may be dangerous. So, how far should parents go to supervise their child's online activities? Should kids be allowed to have computers in their rooms, or should those computers only be located in areas of the home where the whole family lives? Also, what are some of the online risks to children to be aware of, and what should youngsters do when they meet someone who seems suspicious? Due Date of this editorial: FRIDAY, Jan. 5 Students, if you have any questions about this editorial prompt or about the assignment itself, you can see me before or after class, email me, or stay after school one day. Parents, if you have any questions about this prompt or assignment, feel free to contact me through email or over the phone. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to see their work published in a respected newspaper and for students to become more involved in current events that affect their own lives. Students, please take this seriously and do your best. It will pay off! Imagine seeing your name, and your own article, in print!
