I have to do a newspaper project where I create my own newspaper by choosing one of the civilizations I have. (I chose Rome)
It then asks me to
"Create a headline story : This article should be researched. You can choose to write an opinion article of a particular historical event or a sequence of acutal events. (ex politics scientific findings important events etc)
International Story : This sartickle must be written with a bias of the civilization you chose. The article must be written about an event that has occured (ex war, conflict)

So Am I suppose to add two separate stories in this newspaper? Or is the headline and international story just one story
Answered by Graham
The assignment sounds like two stories: the headline article, which would be on the front page in a real newspaper, and the international article, which could fill up other space that the headline article doesn't fill up, and perhaps continue onto another page.

If you really aren't certain, you could email your teacher or have someone email your teacher to ask (if that's an option).

I emailed as well I am just waiting for a response.
So for the headline, it says I have to write an opinion article. So does that mean I choose an event and explain what happened and explain what I feel about the situation?

Some ideas for the lead article:

Caesar conquered Gaul
Caesar assassinated
Hadrian builds wall in England

What would the international be?
Would I have to connect the headline article to the international or can they both be totally different things
Answered by Ms. Sue
I don't see anything in the instructions you posted about an international slant. However, the three I suggested certainly have international effects.

If I choose to do the death of Caesar as the headline what would be an international story?
Answered by Ms. Sue
The death of a world leader always affects international relations. Other nations wonder how new leadership will change trade and military operations. How will Caesar's death affect the Roman colonies?

thanks. so just to clarify for the headline, while I write the situation of Caesar's death I also have to put my opinion about it?
Answered by Ms. Sue
I would write a straight news story. Then, if possible, you could write an op ed piece about it.
