Tips on Reading a Newspaper

1. Find a good, reliable, local newspaper.

2. Make sure the newspaper is reputable, not a tabloid with gossip and false stories.

• Read the headline of your newspaper and the featured pages and see if anything interests you.
• If the front page story intrigues you, read it, and carry on inside the paper if it continues.

3. When finished, go back to the front page and see if any other featured stories interest you.

• Repeat the procedure above.

4. When done with the front page, turn to the next page and see if any article there interests you.

• If so, read it, and then carry on if it continues.

5. Repeat until you have read all of the interesting articles or the entire newspaper.
