A fun quiz with twenty logos that students have to guess before designing a logo to represent themselves. Could be done as a one-off lesson or as part of a Media Studies scheme.
Have fun revising key language techniques with this enjoyable quiz. Students can work in pairs or groups to guess the product being advertised. For extra bonus points they have to name the language techniques used (imperatives; direct address; rhetorical questions; bold statements; rhyme; puns etc). In the second round they are given ten new brands and they have to come up with slogans themselves. Finally, if you want to take it further, they choose one of the brands and slogans and turn it into a full-blown advertising campaign. A great way to launch them into several lessons worth of work!
