You are now going to practise being a journalist!
Research and plan your own response (about 800 words) to the Queen's English Society's idea that there should be an Academy to protect our language. Use the advice sheet on journalism to help you make your article both informative and entertaining. There is a link to an article debating the issue under Useful Links. There are also several useful worksheets on Moodle to help you with your research.
