Description

Help your students learn how to craft powerfully-engaging headlines with this spook-tacular Halloween Headlines mini-unit. This unit helps students understand the purpose, guidelines, and rules necessary to construct eye-catching headlines. This fun and engaging unit is perfect for any journalism or yearbook class.

These lessons can also be completed collaboratively to help build teamwork among your students.

This low-prep, ready-to-print resource includes:

1. A short editable presentation to help your students understand the purpose of headlines. It also includes guidelines, tips, dos and don'ts!

2. A printable Headline Tips you can print for each student or hang as a poster in your classroom.

3. 10 fictional spooky news stories students can use to write their own original headlines.

4. 15 links to Halloween-inspired real news stories (current for fall of 2023). You can keep adding to this list as a fun way to teach current events!

*Some content may not be appropriate for younger students. My high school students love doing this every year, but you know your students best!
