Week 1, 2 and 3 Journalism 1 Welcome to Mrs. Barnett’s Class
Daily Bellwork • Please date each entry. You may write more than one bellwork on a single piece of paper. • Please write in complete sentences. • Keep all bellwork together in correct section of your notebook. • If you are absent, check my website or with the Journalism bulletin board for the Bellwork PowerPoint to make up the one you missed.
Bellwork #1 • What are your goals (short and/or long term) for this school year? How do they differ from those you set for yourself last school year? • Reminder: • MLA Heading – Left Side of Paper • Write the Question • Minimum of one (1) complete paragraph, but you may need additional paragraph to explain. • 10-minute writing
Bellwork #2 • Top 10 Associated Press Style Rules • Use a person’s full name and title the first time you mention him or her in an article. • For example, write Don Swanson, professor of communication, not Prof. Swanson. • Once people have been fully identified, refer to them by last name only. • There are exceptions, so always check the AP Stylebook. • Reminder: • MLA Heading – Left Side of Paper • Write the Rule and Example • 10-minute writing
Bellwork #3 • Top 10 Associated Press Style Rules • Spell out abbreviations or acronyms on first reference. • For example, use Passaic County Community College the first time you refer to the college in a story. You may use PCCC on any references made after that. • Another example would be to use DAR only after you have spelled out Daughters of the American Revolution on first reference. • Well-known abbreviations or acronyms need not be spelled out. • For example, use FBI or YMCA or scuba without spelling them out, as people know what they stand for. • Reminder: • MLA Heading – Left Side of Paper • Write the Rule and Example • 10-minute writing
Bellwork # 4 • Top 10 Associated Press Style Rules • Abbreviate months when used with days, and use numerals (1, 2, 3, etc) not ordinal numbers ( 1st, 2nd, etc). • Exceptions are March, April, May, June and July- write them out, don’t abbreviate. • For example, write Sept 2, 2008, not September 2ns, 2008. When using only the month and year, spell out the month. • Reminder: • MLA Heading – Left Side of Paper • Write the Rule and Example • 10-minute writing
Bellwork #5 • Top 10 Associated Press Style Rules • Generally, spell out the numbers zero through nine and use numerals for 10 and higher. Note, however, that numbers used at the beginning of a sentence are spelled out. • Example: Five hundred twenty-four students attended. It is better, however, to rewrite the sentence so that it doesn’t begin with a number. • Example: Attending the event were 524 students from local colleges. Years are one of the exceptions. • For example: 2008 was a bad year for investors. • Reminder: • MLA Heading – Left Side of Paper • Write the Rule and Example • 10-minute writing
Bellwork #6 • Top 10 Associated Press Style Rules • Use numerals for ages younger than 10. This is another exception to the aforementioned number rule. When used like an adjective, say X-year-old, including the hyphens. Otherwise, don’t use the hyphens. • For example: the 5-year-old girl kicked her brother, who is 8 years old. • Reminder: • MLA Heading – Left Side of Paper • Write the Rule and Example • 10-minute writing
Bellwork #7 • Top 10 Associated Press Style Rules • Spell out the word ‘percent” but use numerals for the actual number. • Examples: Participation increased 5 percent. Nearly 28 percent of all students don’t like algebra. Exception: You may use the % sign in headlines. • Reminder: • MLA Heading – Left Side of Paper • Write the Rule and Example • 10-minute writing
School and Class Procedures • You must wear your ID above your waist and you must be able to show the id immediately when asked. • Fire Drill • Tornado Drill • Lock Down Rules/Pet Peeves • Lotions/Hand Sanitizers • Writing on other people’s property • Food/Drinks • Listening to school announcements
