During summer art classes last year, we made believe we owned a restaurant 'down the shore'. I asked them what is their favorite restaurant and what they liked to eat there. After brainstorming, they were to make a poster or menu of the resturant to advertise. We made sure that the poster/menu had all beach items and food items drawn to look yummy! Fake phone numbers, web addressses, and street addresses were added. I had to spell some hard words to some of the younger students; I didn't want them to stress over spelling.
