Have them start a class newspaper...teach them the basics of informative writing... answering the Who, What, Where, Why, How, and to What extent questions... assign a sports writer, an events writer, a study help writer... and an person who interviews someone interesting... it will be a group project with individual assignments that they can produce and take home or mail to their family and friends. Don't forget a photographer!! Most desktop publishing softwares will let you put together a nice little newspaper that you can produce in-house.

They wrote about things they knew. Picking an item they most like to buy and telling about it with out opinion, just facts, how it was manufactured etc. Shoes, clothes, brand name, electronics. Man did I learn a lot! They researched what they didn't know and presented to a "panel" of "purchase agents as if they were selling the product.
