News Headlines
Topic: Time-Fillers
(This idea was contributed by Christopher Francis)
Age Range: 7 to 11

This idea fits Geography QCA What's in the News?.

Take a pretty mundane event, give the children 1 minute to come up with a 'typical' newspaper headline (sensationalize it).

Older children could try to play with the form and think of it in terms of a likely broadsheet/tabloid headline.
