Computer Applications - Year in the Life

I hope you have enjoyed composing the articles for your "Year in the Life" newsletter. This is the culmination of your year at DCS. Here are the rest of the guidelines for this project:

• This project will not be displayed on the wall!
• You will create a 4-page newsletter using any of the Newer Designs templates, only.
• The newsletter must contain at least 8 (eight) articles and must stay in the original format of the template.
• If you write names of other persons, no unkind remarks or personal stuff.
• You will be able to change the location and number of pictures if you desire.
• Choose any font family, color scheme, etc. but all body text must be the same.
• There is a requirement of at least 4 (four) pictures for the newsletter. See deadline below.
• A close-up picture of you must be on the front page :)
• At least one pull quote - I will teach you that.
• A small calendar showing Graduation Day or the last day of school in color.
• Masthead: Teen Beat, Students' Quarterly, The Informer, ibEduMAcated, Student Life, etc.
• Business name: A Year in the Life of [insert your name here].
• Replace the newsletter date with 2009-2010.
• The order of articles is up to you, except put "In the Beginning" at top of first page.
• Remember to use 3rd person as you write your articles. Everyone's experience is different, so the rest of the articles can be selected from the following list of suggestions:
  Best Friends
