Critically exploring campaigning
Reflect on the information in political campaign posters.
In this activity students analyse a current campaign poster and think about how it works, considering colours, images, slogans and feelings. Students will then use their analysis of posters to make a campaign poster for their school, class elections or an issue they are passionate about.
