The research you undertook obviously a task like this required massive amounts of research, mine was no exception, I had to research through some arti...

Today, we were put into groups of 4 and were to read our BBC Articles out to each other in said group Feedback Below Kieran: "lots of information, really interesting, I loved it, the pictures and sidebar where really related to the article and really draw reader attention. only problem is there is a really huge paragraph block that needs to be smaller to maintain interest" Shay: "was good" Peter "very good information I didn't know this was happening"
