If you found the segment of class that focused on our critical study of the media interesting, here is an interactive way to continue your learning! Visit "Don't Buy It," an educational website by PBSkids.org. On this website, you will learn different ways advertisements, commercials, and television manipulates information and sends strategic messages to its audience i.e., consumers and viewers.
Browse through the website. Try some of the interactive quizzes. Then, write a one paragraph summary of something you found interesting during your search. Make certain the paragraph has a clear main idea --topic sentence. No "I statements" in the topic sentence please. No contractions either! Submit by Monday, June 6th, and you will receive up to 4 points!
