Layout: No matter what form of English tabloid, you should first consider the layout of the tabloid. English tabloids have various forms, which can be blackboard newspapers (refer to blackboard newspapers); It can also appear in other more vivid forms: for example, the whole layout can be divided into rectangular, trapezoidal, triangular, heart-shaped, semi-circular and other different geometric figures. , and can be divided into animals, fruits, flowers or trees, furniture, clothing and other shapes; Or a combination of these forms. In short, it's up to you to choose, as long as it looks good. After determining the layout of the tabloid, we should focus on the position of the tabloid title. The headline of tabloid is the soul of tabloid, and its dominant position must be highlighted. When designing layout frame, avoid unreasonable arrangement and uneven structure.
Title: After the layout is drawn, we begin to design the title. Titles can be written in many forms, but it is best to use exquisite calligraphy fonts. Some students can't write beautiful calligraphy. I suggest you borrow a computer, input your title into the computer, display it in exquisite calligraphy font, and then write it down in imitation (other subtitles can also borrow this form). Don't forget to indicate the editor-in-chief, artist, etc. Next to the tabloids. In this way, the tabloids are more formal.
Content: The next step is to fill in the tabloid. There are various forms of tabloids, such as short stories, children's songs, short essays, funny stories, brain teasers, knowledge introductions, tongue twisters and so on. You can fill in different contents according to the needs of the layout. Filling in the content is not a sloppy thing. Your writing style should be beautiful and give people beautiful enjoyment. Many children can't do this. Let me give you some advice. You can lightly underline and fill in the contents. After writing, gently erase the bottom line. But it's okay to keep the bottom line. When filling in the contents, it is best to write with a black pen, which gives people a strong feeling, and the text is smooth and clear at a glance.
Illustration: In order to add some interest to the tabloid, you can also use some small illustrations such as cartoons, flowers, grass, stars and so on. The size of the illustrations should be patchy; The arrangement should be reasonable. Appropriate illustrations can make the finishing point for tabloids. As long as we all pay more attention to some small illustrations in our usual reading, you will be handy when making tabloids. Some children like to use some big illustrations, which is not bad, but you must pay attention to illustrations and don't dilute the theme of English tabloids.
Color: the tabloids have been basically drawn, and the best craftsmanship is absolutely indispensable. In order to give everyone beautiful enjoyment, you also need to dress the tabloids in colorful coats. Take out your crayons and quickly color the tabloids! Hey! Be careful! Coloring is a delicate work, and once mistakes occur, the fruits of labor will be destroyed. You must pay attention to color matching in the process of color filling. Personally, I think watercolor pens and oil pastels have better visual effects than crayons.
A beautiful tabloid is ready. It turns out that the production of English tabloids is so simple!
In the learning process of "English tabloid production" project, students have completed the production of English tabloids on a certain theme by using various media and some available resources, and their language intelligence, visual space intelligence, interpersonal intelligence and self-reflection intelligence have all been greatly developed.
