Harbor Headlines

In this media literacy worksheet, students read six sample headlines about the attack on Pearl Harbor and label each one as accurate, biased, or emotional. They must justify their classification with a one-sentence explanation. This task teaches students to distinguish factual reporting from opinion or emotionally charged language. It builds critical thinking skills and deepens understanding of how news framing affects reader perception.
