Newspaper Templates | Newspaper Writing Activity with Digital Distance Learning

Newspaper Article Templates are easy, no prep worksheets that can be used for ANY subject area, writing assignment, or information gathering activity in your classroom. This newspaper templates product is so versatile that you can use it all year long in multiple subject areas!

NOTE: Prior to 3/28/20, students were not able to edit these templates on the computer. DOWNLOAD this file again for the digital distance learning option through Google Slides.

Newspaper templates can be used for any of the following: book reports, All About Me, science or social studies reports, expository writing, assessments of learning, or fun facts activities.

Some ideas include:

• book reports
• an All About Me Unit
• science or social studies reports
• expository writing
• assessments of learning
• reflection activities
• fun facts activities

There are 13 templates with the name of a newspaper printed on the front (The Chatty Commentator, The Social Studies Star, Book Report Times, The Babbling Bulletin, etc.). These are followed by 13 templates with varying borders, layouts, and phrases on the front (students create their own newspaper name).

Each of the 26 templates is followed by the back side with a matching border.

Each template includes doodle clip art for illustrations, images, or photos. Of course, an obvious option is for students to illustrate their own pictures on the printed pages. Other options might include printing pictures from the internet, drawing diagrams, or creating tables of information. In the Google Slides options, students right click on the empty square and replace it with an image.

These newspaper templates can be used for 2nd-12th grade, homeschooling, or camp/activities outside of school.
