| Find the Full Lesson Plan linked: Here! Overview of Project: Students will collaborate to persuade consumers to buy a product. Students may choose to review an existing product or act as producers of the product with intent to sell. Students will create a short video advertisement using YouTube and a product brochure using PiktoChart to promote their item of choice. Students used Google Docs to collaborate in real time. If students choose a product on the market, groups will be implored to search their item using student friendly sites to gather information about the product using customer reviews. Students will be expected to use key ideas from their research, ensuring to use their own words and not copy others. Students will support their explanatory writing process using the facts they acquire from research and information they know about the product in creative ways. Students will be responsible for organizing their writing using an opening statement, supporting details and concluding argument to meet the required writing standards addressed at this grade level. The goal of this project is to produce two promotional advertisements for their product. |
