How has writing the second article been going? Is it easier or harder after writing the first? Are there any new difficulties or anything that became easier the second time around?
A question about order came up today -- think most important information to least important information. For instance in the Strike Article: lead that includes information about what happened during the strike (most important) to a quote about what the lawyer thinks the outcome of the strike might be (least important).
So - depending on the focus of your article, you need to determine what you think the most important information is for the reader of the newspaper and for the story itself and what the least important information is for the reader and the story. It will change from article to article.

I wrote mine and it was easy to do but I had some hard times when I was writing my lead (:
I had some difficulties with arranging the sentences per paragraph but I finally succeeded:)
it is easier than the first time but i had some difficulties while i was writing short paragraphs..=)
I noticed that my lead didn't match very well with what I wrote. After changing my lead, I will add some more information since it seemed a little short to me.
