Lesson Objectives - Students will finish the exercises in Vocabulary Unit 6.  They will then start their Embedded Assessment.  This assignment has three parts:

1. TODAY:  First, select a print advertisement and write a well-developed paragraph that identifies specific techniques, claims, language, and images in the ad and analyzes the effect of these elements on the intended audience.
2. TOMORROW:  Next, create a new advertisement for the same product that is targeted for a different audience.
3. WEDNESDAY: Finally, write a reflection to explain the relationship between the content of an ad and the intended audience.  Support your explanation by pointing out differences between the original and new ads.

Homework - Students will have their Vocabulary Unit 6 quiz tomorrow.
