Outrageously Ordinary

I taught a lesson on different types of advertising strategies to my newspaper students this morning. I showed them commercials from the 50s, 60s and 70s. When it was over the kids told me they loved the commercials, but one little girl raised her hand and said “Ms. Cami, why did you use commercials from way back in the 1900’s? They just don’t look real.”  I told her that way back in the 1900’s didn’t seem very long ago to me… I wish you could have seen her face, like I was the Crypt Keeper.
