Students learn about apples, then make a commercial.
Objectives: - Students will try to "sell" the reason we should eat apples.
- Students will make a commercial.
Materials: - Reference books
- apple web sites
- poster board
- video camera
- props as needed
Plan:
Students will be divided into groups of 2-3 students. Students will research and discover interesting facts about apples (nutritional content, fat count, etc). They then will plan a commercial. The commercial can be video taped, or presented "live" in class. The students can use any medium or props necessary to sell their product. The students can assume that their audience has never heard of an apple.
