This was the last article before I turned in this capstone. Im not really into theater so I didn't know about the kids joining this performance. I like learning something and writing about a great opportunity at our school.

This was the latest and most likely the last of the cafe shop reviews we did throughout the year. Reviewing small businesses with my closest friend was something we really enjoyed doing together and it was an experience I will never forget.
This was a important story to me to write. I wrote with a friend in my class. We each were in the Jumpstart program through the ILC. We both believed jumpstart is a very helpful tool that not many people know about and in some ways better than AP classes. This was an opinion piece and I felt very proud that we were able to get our thoughts on paper to inform other students.
This was the next coffee shop review.I enjoyed this one very much because the coffee was amazing and they has pastries which I love.
This is a continuation story from my previous story about Trinity Van Natta. This one was about how her team did after the competition in Bulgaria. It was nice hearing from her on about her team did since I was curious anyway. I did the story by myself this time because the co writer, Sarah, from last time didn't want to write it.
This is the next cafe we reviewed during the year. This one had coffee along with various desserts. It was a dessert shop, primarily French. This was fun because I love chocolate and trying new desserts and it was in a different part of town we haven't gone to yet. It was different compared to the others we had been to.
I had a lot of fun writing this article. My mom is the PTO treasurer and has discusses with me the problems they have had this year. I thought that writing an article on them would help them solve some of these issues they had been having. In fact, this article has caused the largest number of traffic online for the reporter on number of visits. Shortly after this article I won an award called James L. McCann 2018 Excellence in Journalism Award through the Ohio Capital Conference Academic League.
For this review of a local businesses we decided to review a restaurant instead. It was fun because it was it was a nice change from the normal coffee shops that have been opening around town
This story wasn't an article. I made a video for this cycle. Mrs. Fitzwater wanted us to start doing more media stories to post for the reporter so I did one this cycle. It was an instructional video on how to make a chocolate mousse pie. I can not post the video on this blog because that costs money in a different user plan. I had fun making this video because I love baking and wanted to display one of my recipes for the holiday season.
This was another student spotlight on a senior named Trinity Van Natta. She is a trampoline gymnast and was going to compete in a competition in Bulgaria. It was fun to learn about a sport I didn't know about let alone learn about a student that plays that sport.
This was the first article of the 3rd cycle. This was the first article I did about the school its self. I again co wrote this with my friend. This one was fun because I was able to talk to teachers I knew and didn't know about different clubs our school was starting this year. Starting new clubs is exciting because it gives students more opportunities to become involved in school which is why we wrote it, to get more info about them available to students.
This was the second article of the second cycle. This was also the second article of the coffee shop reviews. At this point I was getting into the swing of working in this class and started having more fun in the class.
At the reporter we write articles on students at Bradley called student spotlights. They are about a student that an interesting hobby, sports achievement, academic achievement, and other interesting things they do. This particular article was about my friend I went to elementary school with and became close with during tennis. She is very interested in photography and even did her capstone on it. Her name is Faith Carlisle, I decided to write about her because she created a side business with her skills and takes her skill very seriously. It was very fun being able to write about someone I knew personally because I got to learn something new about someone I'm close with.
This was the first article I wrote in this class. I co wrote it with my friends I joined with. We had the idea to give spotlight reviews to local small businesses that were coffee shops or cafes throughout out the year. This was the first of the many we did and I really enjoyed writing my first article.
