Write a Newsletter or Brochure

In many classes students are often asked to write newsletters or brochures to demonstrate that they have mastered the content of a particular unit. While any word processing program will allow you to create the required document, the following two popular programs provide students with more customization options.

Microsoft Office Publisher

Publisher, which is installed on many school computers, can be used to create professional looking newsletters and brochures to present your research and information to a reader. Publisher 2003 is available on computers in the Toronto District School Board.
