Media Literacy


A break from literature as we take on media literacy, something that affects all of us everyday, sometimes in adverse ways. We will be deconstructing advertisements, looking at the power of media, and examining elements of propaganda, which will be useful in AP language and literature courses later in high school plus AP history and the school's dynamic and popular Holocaust class.
The planner is online, but all students have a copy of the planner and root list #5, which will be tested on Friday.
