Student Activity #5: Office Boy

I’m about to start my job with a newspaper. I’m slightly nervous -- I’ve heard that George Brown is brilliant, but he can be very demanding. I’ve got my notebook and my camera kit ready and I’m excited to begin my new career! [For images of George Brown and the Globe’s head office in Toronto, see http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/

When I arrive at the Globe offices, I meet Brown very briefly. He wants me to organize the newspaper’s major stories from the past twenty years in correct time sequence. I’d better roll up my sleeves and get to work.

 

Your Task: Help Will correctly identify into which filing drawer each newspaper article should be placed. Remember, within the drawer, each file should be in date order.
