Object of study

Children's magazine


Hypothesis

Let us assume that the creation of a children's cognitive and developmental magazine will have positive influence on students' reading activity.


Introduction

How it all began...

Stage 1. Choosing a project theme .

The first magazine was published in France 340 years ago

In Russia, magazines appeared 100 years later

“Journal de Sawan” - journal of scientists


And the first children's magazine was published in the 18th century.

It was called " Children's reading for the heart and mind" .

Its publisher was Nikolay Ivanovich Novikov, writer, scientist and public figure.


History of unusual magazines

"Tram"- Russian children's magazine, published in 1990-1995 with a circulation of 2,118,500 copies, which became a favorite for a whole generation of children, and also, due to its uniqueness, for their parents

"Children are like children"


Editor-in-Chief- Tim Sobakin, aka Tikhon Khobotov, Savely Penguinev, Nika Bosmith and others. But actually - Andrey Viktorovich Ivanov.




"Children are like children" turned out to be a special publication and unique in its own way. This magazine is made by the children themselves.



Problematic question

How not to get lost in the world of magazines, how to find what you need? - Which magazine is the most interesting?


Problematic issues

Can we create a magazine ourselves? What do we need to know to be able to create a magazine? What information will we fill our magazine with? What is interesting to our readers? How will our magazine be different? What should we name our magazine?


Stage 2 Selecting a research object

Preparatory stage.

Getting started, we first decided to find answers to the following questions:

What is a magazine?

Types of magazines?


In modern explanatory dictionary T.F. Efremova, the word “magazine” has the following meaning:

  • Periodical publication in the form of a book containing works of art
  • a) A book or notebook for regularly recording events, decisions, decisions;

b) Personal records kept from day to day (diary)

3) A book for recording student performance assessments

From the dictionary of S.I. Ozhegov we learned that “A magazine is a periodical publication in the form of a book containing articles and works of art by various authors.”


Research stage

While working on the project, we continued our research.

It turns out that magazines, like newspapers, are classified:

by frequency- there are no daily magazines, only weekly and monthly, as well as exiting bimonthly; by format; by topic; by the nature of the presentation .


From literary sources we learned that magazines are:

  • men's
  • women's
  • children's

  • magazines for children from 4 to 6 years old
  • magazines for children from 6 to 10 years old
  • magazines for children from 10 to 14 years old

Children's magazines by content

classified into:

  • Literary magazines (“Barvinok”, “Funny Pictures”, “Misha”, etc.)
  • Popular science magazines (“Miracles and adventures for children”, “Young erudite”, “Miracles and secrets of planet Earth”)


  • Game development magazines (“Luntik”, “Klepa”, “Cool Magazine”, “Smeshariki”, etc.)
  • Magazines about crafts (“Funny Ideas” , « Collection of ideas")

  • Historical magazines (“Bus”, “Mother”)
  • Magazines about travel and travelers (“GEOlenok”, “Restless Children”)

  • Comics magazines, humor magazines (“Jumble”, “The Adventures of SHREK”)

  • Agreed what pages or sections will be in the magazine
  • Distributed magazine pages

How to design a magazine?

We, of course, will not be able to create it like in a real printing house. But we know how to type text on a computer, we know how to draw, make appliqué. Therefore, we decided to print the text and decorate the magazine with drawings and appliqué.


How to design a cover?

From the cover the reader receives the first information about the magazine. Our magazine “Class” was published in October 2016. On the cover we placed riddles about autumn. And the photographs of our class suggest that the reader will learn something interesting not only about autumn, but also about the life of our class.




Our creativity.

On this page we have posted the work of our class. These are crafts, drawings, applications on autumn and winter themes.


Did you know that

Did you know that the largest snowflake that was recorded had a diameter of more than 12 centimeters.

Snow is not only white, but high in Antarctica it turns pink, red and even purple. And it's called watermelon snow. This is because of the algae that live in it.


Doctor Smart Guy

On this page we have placed a crossword puzzle, puzzles, riddles, and quizzes. Everyone loves them.


We think that the reader should find out how people and animals meet autumn and winter. They offered to publish Sokolov-Mikitov’s stories “Blizzard Winter,” “ winter night", Nikolai Sladkov's fairy tale "Under the Snow". From the fairy tale, the reader learns how some animals spend the winter under the snow. And also M. M. Prishvin’s stories about autumn “The Beginning of Autumn”, “The Last Flowers”, Nikolai Sladkov’s fairy tale “Autumn on the Doorstep”. From this tale the reader learns how animals and birds greet autumn.


Pen sample

In class literary reading we write poems and stories in different topics. At one of the lessons the topic “Autumn” was proposed. This is how we created the “Test of the Pen” page. The reader can get acquainted with aspiring poets from grade 3.


Your safety

Winter is fun, joy, snowball fights, ice games, etc. It is important to remember that you need to be extremely careful in winter. This is how the “Your Safety” section appeared. In it we talked about first aid for frostbite and the rules of behavior on ice.


DIY

The guys love to make things various crafts. That's why we proposed the “Do It Yourself” section. According to the diagram, you can assemble a New Year's toy.


Conclusions

During this project:

  • learned to work together with parents to create a project;
  • learned about the existence of various children's magazines;
  • learned about how magazines are made and what sections they consist of;
  • realized that creating a magazine has not only an entertaining purpose, but also an educational one.

Results of the study:

The children in our class have increased their interest in printed publications and have a desire to visit the library. Interest in creating your own cool magazine has increased. Thus, our hypothesis was confirmed.


Dear young reader!

We introduced you to some pages of our magazine. We hope that from all the variety of entertaining information, you will find the most interesting for yourself! Read our magazine and you won't regret your time!

Educational project"Creation of a children's magazine"

Slide No. 1

In literary reading lessons we studied the topic “Children's magazines”. We learned that newspapers and magazines are called periodicals. This means that they come out periodically, that is, after equal periods of time. Once a day, or once a month, or once a week. There are even magazines that are published once a year - yearbooks.

We wondered what types of magazines there are, who creates them, what professions are needed to publish a magazine?

We studied many magazines, looked on the Internet and found out that

· magazines can be educational, entertaining, humorous, only for girls, scientific, literary, about animals, etc.

· We learned what professions are needed to publish a magazine: editor-in-chief, graphic designer, editors, proofreader, computer layout designer, technical editor, etc.

It turns out that to release a magazine, you need a whole team. We decided to try to create a magazine with such a team for the children of our class. The magazines we studied print a lot of entertaining tasks: riddles, funny stories. And we wanted the magazine to be more informative and instructive.

Our group called the magazine “ Amazing world animals”, because we all love them, and our publishing house was called “Owlet”. We decided to make our magazine educational and entertaining.

The idea of ​​publishing an electronic magazine comes to many people's minds. to people who write. This form of presenting content is different from running a regular blog or website. The very essence of the magazine implies a certain “squeeze” from standard materials, a layout that is not typical for website design.

Publishing an electronic magazine is no easier or more difficult than a regular one, although it is not so expensive. However, the monetization scheme for such a publication will differ significantly from the monetization of the printed version.

How to create your own electronic magazine? Find out in this article!

An electronic journal must have the same elements and the same format as any printed journal:

  • availability home page with announcements;
  • imprint and editorial information;
  • the presence of permanent sections;
  • “magazine” page design - text should be mixed with illustrations, graphs, quotes, etc.;
  • a single graphic style – from footers and headings to the author’s signature.

At the same time, the electronic version of the publication has significant advantages over the printed version:

  • publication of a paper magazine is associated with a large number production costs, while at the same time practically there are no costs for the production and distribution of an electronic magazine(except for );
  • for publishing an electronic magazine much is required less people – the team has enough of an editor, a proofreader, a designer (layout designer) and two or three full-time journalists, the rest can be involved from time to time as outsourcers – for example, or copywriters;
  • unlimited number of readers– regular subscribers;
  • wide geographical spread of readers– the electronic magazine can be read wherever there is Internet access;
  • efficiency– the electronic magazine will be sent to the subscriber at the time of publication, while printed versions are delivered by mail and couriers not as quickly as we would like, especially to remote parts of the country;
  • possibility of using non-standard content: in the printed version there is a minimum of interactivity - only pictures and text; in the electronic version you can add videos, slide shows, interactive tests, etc.;
  • possibility of using hyperlinks– from the text electronic version you can “go” to any website or page of the same publication;
  • high quality images;
  • possibility of posting an unlimited number of pages, including uneven (in a regular publication, the number of pages is always a multiple of 4, which makes it necessary to “adjust” the material if there is a shortage or excess).

The most important advantage of an electronic journal is that its distribution can and should be free. Then he will have large number subscribers who will be willing to arrange free delivery to their email new number.

This reduces advertising and subscription costs. There is simply no subscription in the usual sense of the word, but To advertise a publication, it is enough to use SEO and SMM which are traditionally cheaper compared to other advertising channels and provide good effect in the long term.

Choosing a topic for an electronic magazine

Before you plan to publish an electronic magazine, you should decide on the topic and study the competitors. The most profitable topics that traditionally attract attention:

  • finance and investment (Forbes, Russian reporter, Money, Business magazine and others);
  • (Auto-center, Auto-world, Auto-review, 4x4 and others);
  • women's magazines (Oops, Glamor, Caravan of Stories, Lisa, ELLE and others);
  • computers, gadgets, high technology(Upgrade, ComputerWorld, Hacker and others).

This is, so to speak, general niche magazines that cover issues on a fairly broad topic. Advertising revenues are significant here, but competition is also high.

If an electronic magazine is published by a small team or even one person, then it is unlikely to be able to compete with huge corporations. Therefore, it is more appropriate to highlight a narrower topic, for example, gardening, blogging, car care for a certain brand, a volleyball sports magazine, etc.

Current creation regional news or entertainment magazine of small volume.


How to create your own electronic magazine from scratch: start-up costs

To start the publication you will need:

  1. License to conduct publishing activities. It is issued by Roskomnadzor; the cost of the state duty depends on many factors: periodicity of publication, subject matter, volume of advertising, etc. The exact calculation will be made by the inspector when filling out the questionnaire. You cannot conduct commercial activities without a license, so it’s better to get one!
  2. Your address on the Internet– domain name plus paid hosting for at least a year. You can find good options within 1,500 rubles per year.
  3. Acquisition You can, of course, use free options like WordPress or Joomla. In essence, you don’t need much from the engine: to be able to subscribe and present an archive of issues.
  4. Design development. But you will have to spend money on design if there is no web designer on the team. The average price is 10,000 per project.
  5. Purchasing the necessary software. In particular, you will need a program to layout the magazine and convert it into PDF format for further distribution. InDesing is ideal for this. At worst, you can layout magazines in Publisher or Photoshop, but it is better to use a specialized program. A license for InDesing costs about $100 and is perpetual.
  6. . Please note that if the publisher is , he will have to pay his salary officially, and this is associated with additional costs in the form of taxes and
  7. Purchasing content for distribution. Of course, staff journalists can write articles on their own - that's what they do. However, if the magazine is made by one or two people, outsourcers are indispensable. Intelligent articles can be ordered from copywriters or purchased directly from the exchange of finished works. A 16-page magazine will require about 10 articles of 5,000 characters. At average price for copywriting 30 rubles per 1000 characters the cost will be approximately 1500 rubles.
  8. Purchasing a license to download photos from photo stocks. Nobody forbids taking pictures from Yandex - it's fast and free. however, many photos are copyrighted and may cause problems with their owners. It’s safer to buy a license on any photo stock and post photos from it without fear. The cost of licenses varies - from 25 to 100 dollars per month of subscription.

Thus, the initial cost of starting an electronic journal are unlikely to exceed 15,000 rubles. can be paid after receiving the first profit.

Site structure

How to create your own electronic magazine? The initial placement of material on the site is important. You should definitely think through the rubrics. The following will be required:

  • "Archive"– PDF versions of already published issues will be posted here. The old issue must be posted at the time the new one is released. Potential readers will be able to download those magazines that interest them, and then subscribe to the latest issues. It is better to close the archive from indexing: in case the texts from the published issue are “stolen” across websites, the magazine may simply be banned for non-unique content.
  • "Subscription"– in fact, the main section. Ideally, a modest form with two columns: the name and address of the subscriber. After filling out the form, the user is “transferred” to any subscription service, for example, Smartpesponder. When a new issue comes out, you need to increase your subscriber base and simply create a newsletter using the capabilities of the service.
  • "Blog"– a category is necessary to attract readers from search engines. You should not publish articles published in the journal and already published on your blog, otherwise you will be banned for non-unique texts. The best option is to write new articles. On extreme case give announcements of future publications or publish only the beginning of the article. At the end of each such page you need to insert a subscription form.
  • "Contacts"– in the section, indicate the editorial office’s output; you can tell a little about the magazine’s staff.
  • "Advertisers"– here you should place your commercial offer. Advertising prices will depend on the number of subscribers, so this information should be open. You can also attach any metric and make it public. This way advertisers will be able to assess the “portrait” of the reader audience.


Electronic magazine business plan

As mentioned earlier, the magazine should be distributed free of charge. As practice shows, a paid subscription is not so effective. A any paid magazine will sooner or later get published, and it can be downloaded for free - for example, from a torrent.

Therefore, the basis for generating income needs to be done with advertising. Readers generally respond normally to advertising in print or electronic publications; it is not as annoying as television or banner ads on websites.

The owner of the magazine sets the prices himself. The average cost of an A4 page for a publication with more than 10,000 subscribers is about 5 thousand rubles for internal pages and 15-20 thousand rubles for the front and back pages.

A second source of income can be placement of advertising articles both on the pages of the magazine and on the website.

These were the prices for accommodation. Additionally, the magazine may charge a fee for developing an advertising design, writing an article, photographing the advertised product, etc.

There is an opportunity to earn money from contextual advertising. To do this, it is better to add to the Yandex or Google advertising network and earn money on clicks. If you use teasers or banners, this will scare off readers who think that the publication is “yellow.”

Generally, publication of an electronic magazine must be calculated based on the possible costs of publication and distribution (i.e. advertising), as well as potential profits.

Further promotion of the electronic magazine

In order to increase the readership, it is necessary to:

  • create groups in social networks and publish announcements of published articles;
  • use the possibilities of contextual advertising, but you need to find a way to convert visiting users into subscribers;
  • work to attract advertisers: publish reports, send commercial offers and press releases;
  • organize competitions, possibly with the participation of a sponsor;
  • publish materials about famous people and ask them to tell their fans about this interview.

According to statistics, the magazine begins to generate income when the number of regular subscribers is more than 5,000 people.
