Camp Green Lake Radio Commercial



This week our class will finish the novel "Holes." As part of our culminating activity, students will be writing a radio commercial to advertise Camp Green Lake. This assignment will also be the final one in our descriptive writing unit. Students should describe their camp using the 5 senses we have talked about in class (sight, smell, taste, touch and sound). A level 3-4 piece of writing must include at least 3 of the senses. In addition, the commercial should contain a slogan and contact information. One the script has been published, students will record their commercial into the computer and add music. The comercial will be marked using the same rubric as the teacher's lounge assignment.
