How can your students use their knowledge of persuasive advertising practices to sell products to an audience?

In this collection of worksheets, students are presented with a product and must create an advertisement using six key persuasive advertising practices – colour, humour, imagery, persuasive language, a slogan and a character.

Five product options are included with this resource, as well as an optional reflection task where students describe how and why they’ve used each practice. A blank template is also included that could be used with any product – why not use a product from a class text, or create posters for fundraising events such as a school bake sale?

The use of a checklist makes this resource ideal for an easy, low-prep assessment or a way to quickly check for understanding.

You might like to enlarge the templates to A3 to create larger poster with more space for students to write, draw and colour. This is also ideal for when students are working in pairs or small groups!

This activity is a great follow-up to the Persuasive Advertisement Practices POWERPOINT.
