This is an advertising project for 6th grade language arts students to get them acquainted with reading alternative texts and to understand how to read advertisements.
Teacher Introduction
This is an exciting way to get students interested in reading texts that go beyond a novel, short story, or poem. Our kids "read" ads every single day and don't even realize they are reading. This Webquest is to help students understand what they are seeing and to make more informed choices about what they are purchasing. This unit will broaden student understanding and improve their media literacy skills.
