Lets Observe!

In class we have discussed the use of details while writing our narrative accounts. Details help the reader to visualize what is going on; in other words, you must show the reader what is going on instead of telling them. In journalism, this technique is very evident in a good article. A reporter needs to show the reader what is going on while simultaneously reporting the facts.

As a reporter, you will only have a few minutes (maybe even seconds) to see certain events. Your observational skills must be turned on!

Task:
You will see an image related to your leads done the previous week. You will have 30 seconds to jot down as much information about the picture as you can.
