I decided that the magazine I am going to create will be a sixth form magazine. During our previous lesson we began to think of names for our magazines and create spider diagrams to mind map ideas. I first made a rough copy of what the front cover of the magazine was going to look like and what the layout was going to look like e.g. put a title in, headlines, pictures, and text about the magazine and information in it. I thought of a few names for my magazine and in the end I decided to go with 'Epication'. The word 'Epic' is a word for something amazing, cool or brilliant. I have taken 'Cation' from 'Education' from school life e.g. to learn etc... Using these I have merged them to make 'Epication'.
