Notes
Teacher Notes
This lesson can be used for 3rd, 4th or 5th graders. The goal or main idea of this lesson is to introduce logos to students in a way that can help them distinguish the reasons for certain things. Giving higher order thinking questions to the students will help them go beyond the natural way of thinking and help them step out of the box and understand media literacy more than they originally thought they could.
