Amanda & Nicole (in p.2) asked: “Do we have to make brochures for everyone in the class?”
Make 7 minimum – This goes for comics, pamphlets, brochures, etc. that sort of thing…
Make 15 minimum – This goes for handouts (single page like crossword, word searches, etc.).
This is so that they -the audience- can look at and pass them around the room.
Make one extra special one and then try to duplicate it. Maybe at Kinkos, Office Depot or something.
Wherever you take it for copying, let them know it’s for school and that you’re poor, maybe they’ll give you a discount – hehe. You never know the amount of kindness kind words can pull out of a person. Kind words bring kind deeds and so on.
