Mrs. Sanders' kindergarten students have been studying advertising and how advertisers try to influence our purchases and our behavior. The students analyzed the different parts of an advertisement. Once they understood some of the basic parts of an advertisement, the students came to the computer lab and used Microsoft Word to create their own advertisements for real products of their choice. The students learned how to move pictures in MS Word and add text. They practiced changing the font sizes and making their advertisement look "good" in their own words. The students also practiced printing their work, a skill they learned before the winter break. Way to go, Mrs. Sanders' Bugs!
We as parents, really appreciated this lesson for the kids that advertisements are not always what they say they are ... This lesson is very important and we were happy to see Avyay having absorbed it so well ... Also, excited to see the little bugs creating their own documents and becoming comfortable with the computer ... Thanks!!
