What to do next… Finish the front page of your group worksheet. Mr. Thompson is the owner of the company whose product you are advertising. He must approve your idea before it is “produced” (drawn for step #7) Once it is approved, draw your ad. Decide how your group will present it to the class. This can be as simple as showing your drawing on the doc cam and explaining your metaphor or as complex as acting out a 30-second commercial.
