Through the use of iPads, students will venture out of the classroom and tape a variety of segments to air on our daily schoolwide newscast that serves close to 500 students. These segments include but are not limited to:

• Word of the Day where a student introduces the word of the day, gives the part of speech and definition, and uses the word in a sentence.
• Commercials for upcoming events like concerts, musicals, etc.
• Sporting events - shoot highlights of games to show on our school newscast and commentary from students to promote school spirit.
• Community Service - promote and highlight upcoming community service activities including canned food drive to benefit the community, and Red Ribbon Week to build awareness.
• Character Education - segments to inform students about issues facing teens such from a reputable source, such as the Hooksett Fire/Police Department.

The use of iPads would be instrumental in providing our entire school with an informative, educational, and entertaining newscast. It will also provide the news staff with a medium to connect with their peers and teach them about the vast amount of technology available. Students research, compose, and implement at a minimum of four original projects from preproduction to post-production, while learning the valuable skills of journalism and ethics.
