THE MANUAL FOR SCHOLASTIC NEWSPAPER PUBLICATIONS

By the adviser and staff of the Rockville Rampage. Written by students for students, this practical textbook sticks to the hands-on dos and don’ts that guide students through the day-to-day writing and publishing of a prize-winning school newspaper. Based on the concept of a house stylebook, the student textbook spells out each staff member’s responsibilities, summarizes correct procedures, and sets the journalistic standards that made the Rampage the 2005 winner of a national contest sponsored by Time Magazine, Time For Kids, and the Association of Educational Publishers (and also the winner of awards from Quill and Scroll, the National Scholastic Press Association, and the Maryland Scholastic Press Association). When in doubt, students—and advisers, too—can "Look it up in The Manual." The 100-page supplemental adviser’s guide provides from-the-trenches counsel for advisers plus useful reproducible forms and activity handouts for building student skills. Grades 6–12.
