The Newsletter:
You will create a 4 page (2 page front and Back) newsletter. It
will be designed on a single sheet of paper that folds in the center
to create a 2 page newsletter connected (folded) along the long
edge.
Research is not necessary for this assignment, I am really just grading
on layout and your ability to use formatting tools. So you can make
up the content for your newsletter. You can use a hobby as a guide
or make up something that gives you lots of content.
Your Newsletter will have the following elements:
-
Required Elements:
-
Your document will have 2 columns on every page.
-
Your document should have a title area where the title can be
displayed in a large font.
-
Your document will have between 2 and 4 pictures but they will not
take up more than 20 percent of the newsletter.
-
Your document will contain 2 tables. One table must have atleast
4 columns and 4 rows and must fit inside one of the 2 columns on a
page. The second table must have atleast 2 columns and 4 rows and
must span the full width of the page.
-
The remainder of the document should contain text. It should be in
sub sections with section titles or white space to separate each
section.
-

You do not have to follow this example, in fact you will get a higher
score if you use your own idea, however, here is an example of a
newsletter breakdown.
