Okay, what I’ve just handed you is an 8 page zine template, this where you will do your final lay outs of your zine projects.
Okay, get back into your groups and focus on the final layout of the cover today.
Only one person needs to work on that final assembly.
The other person in your group should start working on the next writing part of the assignment.
I’ll come around to give you my input on your covers and back covers.
I will also be assessing your progress, as far as, getting the content done in a timely manner.
You will be held accountable if you do not have two pages laid out by the end of today.
If you’re partner needs the internet for research purposes, he or she will have ten minutes so take very good notes for any information you need.
