Imagine
that you are living in London in 1851,
the year of the Universal Exhibition and the Crystal Palace of Joseph Paxton...
Your new task today is to create the front page of a newspaper.
Choose one template
from this zip file (all the templates are in word
format), choose a name and... complete it with the monthly news that you
consider more remarkable (you can use several examples from this wiki page or search for other real events that
happened in that year in any part of the world).
You HAVE TO include a minimum of 4 different pieces of news and 1 advertisement (historically accurate to that year). Besides, there must be at least 2 illustrations (a drawing, an engraving...) and 2 primary sources (eg. Extract from a real speech of a politician or a real satirical cartoon from that year). When finish, please convert it to PDF format and send it as attached file to acarriles@educa.jcyl.es.
This work is individually and mandatory and will be part of the
score at the end of the term. If you fail to finish it, do it out of date, or
just copy&paste from a webpage, the mark will be a 0 for this work.
Be creative and enjoy it!
