Thsi is an excellent resource - i am actually going to use this link with a group of yr 10 GCSE Art students who have been covering photojournalism, they have written an imaginary artical about what would happen if all artists were made redundant and taken photographs to document the visual effects of the current gloabl recession on the streets of their city.

Cathy Sams,
At the moment, Printing Press does not have the work saver feature attached to it, and thus students cannot save their work and return to it later. However, Printing Press is currently in redesign, and during the redesign, we hope to have the work saver function added to it!
You can keep track of what is in the works for ReadWriteThink from the editors of the site (though mostly just me) at http://rwteditor.blogspot.com/

How do you save their work so that they could work on it later? We couldn't get it to save on the computer or on a thumb drive. Help! The kids were really excited about the classroom paper.

Excellent genre framework! I'll try these lesson plans out with my EL learners in 7th, 8th and 9th grade.

Great organized lesson plans! Thinking about creating a classroom newspaper with 3rd graders. Good way to implement the 5 w's in writing. Really loved the lesson examples for the nursery rhymes.
Fun to learn subject writing news stories. Most of all love the Printing Press interactive for the the children, it's easy to create the finished writing piece
Thank you

I also like this resource. I created a rubric using rubistar in order to grade the newspaper articles. Here is the link: http://rubistar.4teachers.org/index.php?screen=ShowRubric&module=Rubistar&rubric_id=1899035&.

LOVE this lesson plan! I want to try it with my third graders. I hope it isn't too difficult for them! I too am curious on how you graded the articles.

These lesson plans were very detailed and well thought out. I loved having this input while I was creating my own newspaper unit. The only thing I thought was missing was a description of how you graded the student's articles.
