"Silly Joe doesn't really like to read, so you must do something MORE creative to catch his attention. He'll listen to a rap song; OR he'll hang a poster in his room. But to earn his respect, you must first show your knowledge of tobacco and your commitment to fight its use by young people."
fireworks2 Nonfiction Rules!
Webquest we ALL Need TO DO!
"Mr. B.G. is a man unaccustomed to losing. He plans to produce a nonfiction magazine called Teen Scene. He wants a small, inexpensive magazine that will reach the widest teenage audience. The magazine will be sold in shopping malls and grocery stores, but he also plans to sell it at big events like the X-Games and rock concerts.
To assure his nonfiction magazine will be appealing to young adults, he is sponsoring a contest in schools throughout the country. Each school entering the contest must research what nonfiction teens might be interested in reading and to produce some potential articles for his new venture in a magazine format."

This webquest was designed to help students better understand the genre of nonfiction by examining, reading and writing feature articles and editorials."
