January 20th

Today we talked about the advertising techniques of Name Calling and Glittering Generalities. Name calling is when one product "bad mouths" another to convince you to buy theirs. We watched a bunch of the mc vs. pc commercials online because they are a great example of name calling. Glittering Generalities are when a prduct uses general positive words that really don't mean much such as "pure and natural."

Also-our final money count for our bake sale fundraiser was $330! Thanks to all of you who donated items or money to the cause!
