Front Pages of the World

1. Secret School Shooting, this is my favorite because the title is really big and it makes you want to read more. 
2. 
3. Trenton, N.J
4. My favorite headline is "teen brings bb gun, shoots two classmates…" I'm interested in this because I wonder what made the kid want to shoot the two classmates.
5. There is only one story on the font page
6. Things that newspapers have in common are that they have big titles and they all have at least one thing on their front page that they make to catch someones eye.
7. Things that might be different in a newspaper is that they could have only one story on the front page instead of a lot like this one.
