1st Period Magazine

European History Tabloid!

Tabloids!

       Our class period’s magazine is going to be in the form of a tabloid. Our aim is to have the articles be racy, interesting, and fun, while still being informative and educational. The time period included will span from the European Renaissance to WWI as something like a “semi-millennial edition” of a tabliod, covering important people, fashion, sports & leisure, technology, food, and anything else people might find in a tabloid.

People:

Editor in Chief: Kaitlyn C

Art Editor: Lida W

Fundraisers: Liz A and Natalia K

Tech People: Warren S and Jeff

Our first group of articles are about the Renaissance. Here are the topics and the people writing about them:
