Field Trip ends in Tragic Crash
Yesterday afternoon a van carrying ten Utah State University students and one Professor in the Agriculture department were traveling back to Logan on Interstate 84 from a field trip at Green Line Implements. While traveling the 15 passenger van swerved from the slow lane into the fast lane and back into the slow lane. The van then rolled tossing all of the passengers out of the vehicle.
Kyle Holden was traveling along with the van in his own truck and passed them seconds before the crash took place, he said "It all happened so fast." Moments after the crash took place Lieutenant Jason Jensen, who was patrolling on duty, discovered the accident. Officials are still investigating the cause of the accident.
Four passengers were pronounced dead at the scene, Evan Parker who was driving the vehicle and was also an Instructor at Utah State University. Three students were pronounced dead at the scene as well Steven Bair, Kirk Madsen, and Brad Wilcox. The remaining survivors are currently being treated at Brigham City Hospital and Ogden Regional Medical Center.

Amy, I liked you article. You could have told a little bit more about what might have caused the accident. Good job! :)
I loved the way you wrote your article. It had really smooth transitions, and it was very easy to follow. Your punctuation needed a little more though :) (it's okay, we were moving fast!)
Amy, I really liked that your story was very easy to read, I was interested the whole time. I would say that a little more detail could have added a lot to the story. But as we were all rushed this is very hard to accomplish.
Hey Amy! Good article overall. My advice would but to watch your punctuation. It is a little challenging with the few minutes that we have, isn't it?
