Based on the issue, I really like the front cover, where I felt the artist did a great job on drawing the character that she is trying to portray with the use of pastel colors. This front cover had a nice introduction to the our 2019-2020 plaid press issues. Besides the front cover, the newspaper covered a variety of topics that students can learn from, especially the school and their changes to their education system. For example, students were able to read more about the new ACADECA team, the construction to the new culinary classroom, the new radio class, and the IB 9/10 program replacing GHI. In this issue, I wrote about the new culinary classroom and radio class. I felt that I did well on writing about the new radio class, where I felt that I really had an angle to focus on. This angle is talking about how the radio class originally originated from a club run by students and its purpose is to provide another opportunity for students to participate at the school. As for the culinary classroom, I struggled in the beginning on writing this article due to having generic information. Even though I had a lot of information about the new layout for the culinary classroom, I felt it would have turned into a feature article than a news one. Also, I felt that we could use this information to help us write about when the new classroom opens. Besides that, when I was trying to interview people for this article, a lot of them were unsure about the information that I was trying to ask, in terms of the special education students and the opening day of the culinary classroom in general.
