Idea #1
Topic: Life as a foreign exchange student
Story Idea: What is the transition like for a person who is not from the United States, moving to New York City? What was life like in their native country? Is it hard trying to fit in?
Sources: Students who moved to New York City from another country, ESL teacher Mr.O'Donnell

Idea # 2
Topic: What has more influence on kids media or parents?
Story Idea: Kids start watching t.v from a very young age, and always tend to imitate what they see. Society is highly influenced by the media, and often parents may feel that they can't contorl their children because they want to do what other people are doing on t.v.
Sources: Guidance counselors, students, teachers with kids.
Visual: Students watching t.v.
Sidebar Possibility: Graph showing how much time kids spend watching t.v.
Idea #3
Topic: Do teachers grade fairly?
Story Ideas: Students often say that teachers assign homework and seem to not really look at it, while other teachers often misplace homeworks, leaving the student with a missing assignment. Are teachers organized? Do they give us they don't even grade at the end?
Sources: Teachers, students opinions; Mr. Strong, Mr. O'Brien

Hi Beliisa,
ReplyDeleteForeign exchange students are ones from another country who come to USA for a year and live with a current student's family. We don't have any of those.....
