8. Explain how, in a simple way, a teacher can use a newspaper article to inspire writing.

A teacher can use a newspaper article to inspire writing by selecting an interesting article that relates to a topic the students are studying or a current event. The teacher can then ask the students to read the article and discuss its key points, encouraging them to think critically about the information presented. Once the students have a good understanding of the article, the teacher can prompt them to write a response or reflection on the topic, ask them to write a summary or analysis of the article, or challenge them to write their own news article on a related subject. This exercise can help students practice summarizing information, developing their own opinions, and improving their writing skills.
