Language Arts - Persuasive Techniques

Today my students started working on our Persuasive Techniques unit.  I'm pretty excited because I'm starting with just a few of the techniques and they have to show them through a 'printed ad' that they will create.  I'll post pictures of the best ones here later.

Wednesday, I'll start them off on our big project where they will have to actually record a commercial using a specific amount of the various techniques we have studied.  I've never done this particular project before, but I'm quite excited to get it going.

My younger class will be studying Persuasive Techniques as well.  Instead of the commercials, I'll be having them sell a car of their choice using the techniques.  The tricky part will be that they have to put it on a poster board and convince their classmates to 'buy' said car.  I've done that one several times in the past and it always goes over well.  I'll take pictures of those too!

We shall see!
