Display an advertisement on the overhead. Have students tell what they like and dislike about the ad. Have them provide examples of how it could be made better. Have a student read objectives and go over directions. Students may find a partner or you may assign partners.
All students are to write their own essay.
Check and grade the first thing the next day. Students may design their new and improved advertisements, complete their essays, and make the display poster. This should take approximately two days. Set a time limit, but adjust if needed. Display advertisements in the room or hallway as students finish.
