Students report on a flooded high-school soccer field in a fictional northern Ontario town. They walk a 3D scene to gather notes from witnesses and records, check each claim at the place that proves it, then build the front page in OSSLT formats: a drop-down 5 Ws fact box, a fact-or-opinion checklist, single-selection headlines and leads, and a drag-and-drop paragraph order.

OSSLT-style reading practice. Students read three short, original real-life narratives told by a Grade 10 student working early shifts at a small arena near Sudbury, highlight the sentence that proves each inference with a test-style highlighter, and only then answer in the single-selection or multiple-selection format.

Grade 10 proofreading for the OSSLT: the student is a print shop's proofreader the night before a fictional Ottawa Valley festival. On each proof line they first tap the spot where the error sits (or decide the line is already correct), then fix it with an OSSLT-style drop-down menu whose wrong options are real traps.

Two rival radio crews hear four short original dialogues from a community radio drama in the fictional town of Tessmore, Ontario. Every phone judges tone, purpose and what a speaker implies in the OSSLT's single- and multiple-selection formats, then hunts for the one line that gave the subtext away, which the big screen replays only after answers lock.
