What do I know about newsletter?

From my own understanding and reading, newsletter is a publication that is regularly distributed to the subscibers. Subsribers may be the members of the organizations or someone who is intersted with the content of the newsletter. Generally, newsletter contains one main topic of interest. For example, my group is doing newsletter for the School of Young English Learner and our newsletter is all about English Week.

Other examples of newsletters are newspapers and leaflets. I have read that nowadays, newsletters delivered electronically via email (e-Newsletters) have gained rapid acceptance for the same reasons email in general is gaining popularity over printed correspondence. General attributes of newsletters include news and upcoming events of the related organization.

During the task, I was incharged for the newsletter compilation. Thus, i have to do all the designing parts as well as rearrange and make sure that the newsletter look well-organized and attractive enough for the readers to read. As we are doing for school newsletter, our readers are the school children. At this point, it is very important to choose the contents, fonts, graphic, and colours; in order to ensure the suitability of the readers' interest.
