The Eye Wonder team learns how billboards are designed and made.
Non-science lesson.
This video has little to offer a science class, but would be excellent for a middle school journalism class.
Introduction: This activity could be used as a post-video project for students to design billboard advertisements.
Materials: depends upon how involved the instructor wants to make the lesson
Procedure:
1. Have the class discuss different billboards they have seen around the city.
2. Have the students break into groups and design billboards for different products. You can assign the specific products or services to work on, or let the students come up with their own.
3. Use materials to create your billboards. You can have them do this on sheets of paper, poster board, or bulletin board paper. They can use pens, pencils, crayons, markers, colored pencils, or anything you have available to use.
