Tori - I'm not sure I understand the sequence of these pages because you haven't uploaded them as spreads... so I can only guess. It looks like the T of C might sit on the left, and your PSA sit on the right. Please reverse this - the inside front cover should hold an ad - either a PSA or a marketing ad. The T of C should sit on the left.
T of C design - why do these lines of type sit as if they might be part of a ransom note? Please straighten them out, create 2 columns and work within that structure. The columns can be staggered, one higher than the other, but they must be straight. You are designing for adults, not little kids.
Weekly News - the photo continues to create really short, awkward lines in the body copy. You haven't found the best place for that round photo yet... watch how it pushes type around and do not allow it to break into the columns so much. You are allowing it to create a readability problem for us. This is why I suggested you bleed it off the right side of the page - so it would only cut into 1 column of type.
Fitness - Notice that your heading "Yoga Pose for the Day" contains a widow. Please force a line break (soft return) so the heading breaks after "Pose" and the second line is more filled out. It will create a more consolidated shape... something we try to make happen as often as we can. No widows!
Notice that your second list, at the bottom, is using "space after" each item... and it is much more inviting to read than the top list. This is the time to be consistent, and you should follow what you have done in the bottom list.
Not many pages here. Please review the required sections (at top of the handout I gave you this week) and make sure you have included them.
