Business Poster Lesson Plan

Objective:
Students will use the text and their own creativity to design and create a poster for Piper's laundry service.

After reading past ch. 12, the class will discuss Piper's and Moose's tactics for enticing kids to use their laundry service. Through whole-class discussion, determine why kids are interested and what the major selling points are. Using ads found in magazines, newspapers, and on the internet, the class will then investigate what information is important to include in advertisements. In small groups, students will design and create a poster for the laundry service based on the text and what the class has discussed. The teacher will lead the discussion about the book, and guide the investigation of the advertisements. While students are creating the posters, the teacher will answer questions, provide encouragement and guidance, etc.
