Start-Up Activity
Point to posters you have displayed in your classroom (or bring in posters for the occasion). Ask students the topic of each poster. Ask what the purpose of the poster is. Have students tell what the words do to get the main point across. Ask what the pictures do to make the poster work.
Help students see that posters use words and pictures to make strong statements and influence people. They will get to make their own posters and help convince their readers.
