To let their creative juices flow, they have been assigned to work in groups to create a video or print advertisement using the techniques learned in class. This is a fun project that will not be marked. While I thought that the students might not be interested in it because it does not count towards a grade, they proved me wrong by jumping into the task with gusto. If I could have posted a video here, you could have heard the enthusiastic chatter and felt the energy in the classroom. Alas, you have to make do with pictures. I look forward to seeing their creations after the break!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/\/\/var\/mobile\/Containers\/Data\/Application\/EFC45963-EBC5-4896-9B7D-A77B9A974F2B\/Library\/Caches\/Media\/thumbnail-p10527-2224x2224.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1970224494 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2224px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2224\/2224;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/\/\/var\/mobile\/Containers\/Data\/Application\/EFC45963-EBC5-4896-9B7D-A77B9A974F2B\/Library\/Caches\/Media\/thumbnail-p10540-2224x2224.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-896483177 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2224px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2224\/2224;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/\/\/var\/mobile\/Containers\/Data\/Application\/EFC45963-EBC5-4896-9B7D-A77B9A974F2B\/Library\/Caches\/Media\/thumbnail-p10541-2224x2224.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1970225002 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2224px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2224\/2224;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/\/\/var\/mobile\/Containers\/Data\/Application\/EFC45963-EBC5-4896-9B7D-A77B9A974F2B\/Library\/Caches\/Media\/thumbnail-p10542-2224x2224.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image--1251000469 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2224px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2224\/2224;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/\/\/var\/mobile\/Containers\/Data\/Application\/EFC45963-EBC5-4896-9B7D-A77B9A974F2B\/Library\/Caches\/Media\/thumbnail-p10543-2224x2224.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image--177258644 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2224px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2224\/2224;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/\/\/var\/mobile\/Containers\/Data\/Application\/EFC45963-EBC5-4896-9B7D-A77B9A974F2B\/Library\/Caches\/Media\/thumbnail-p10613-2224x2224.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1970290282 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2224px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2224\/2224;\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Posting this on behalf of Ms. Mekhala.The grade 8s have been working hard for the past couple of weeks to learn the skill of analysing advertising techniques which culminated in a formal essay this week.
