Here are our goals for today. By the end of this lesson, you'll have the skills to analyze a poster, plan your own story, write a fantastic diary, and even help each other improve your work. It's going to be a productive and fun session!
‹#›
Task 1: Read and Analyze the Poster
Read the poster carefully and answer the questions:
1. Where are the divers going on this adventure?
2. What are they going to do and see during the trip?
3. Which of the experiences appeals to you most and why?
Farne Islands
Wreck diving, scenic diving with seals
1.7.2013
Now, let's move on to our first task. Here is a poster for an undersea adventure. Please read it carefully and find the answers to these three questions. Take a few minutes to think about them.
‹#›
Task 1: Analyzing the Poster's Structure
Let's break down the poster. What information sections does it include?
Headline
“UNDERSEA ADVENTURE”, “DISCOVER A HIDDEN ENGLAND”
Basic Info
Where, When, What’s Included?
Highlights
“WRECK DIVING” & “SCENIC DIVING”
Call to Action
“Join the adventure!”
💡 A well-designed poster has a clear structure that works together to inform the audience and persuade them to act.
The big, bold text that grabs your attention immediately.
Farne Islands | 1 June-31 July | 2 dives, lunch, instructors. Provides essential details.
Describes the main attractions to spark interest in the event.
An implied or direct invitation designed to motivate people to take action.
1.7.2013
Great job! Now let's look deeper into the poster's structure. A persuasive poster usually has several key parts. Can you identify them? We have a headline to grab attention, basic information, activity highlights, and a call to action. Understanding this structure is key for our own writing.

Task 1: The Power of Words
Which words and phrases in the poster appeal to you? Why?
Discussion:How do these words make you feel? (Excited? Curious? Safe?)
Adjectives(Create positive images)
magical, lovely, unusual, premier
Verbs(Create a sense of action & journey)
explore, discover, take you on a circuit, set sail
Nouns(Evoke curiosity and wonder)
secrets, wrecks, residents, forests
Persuasive Phrases(Builds trust & inclusivity)
"something for divers of all skill levels", "don't worry, they're harmless!"
1.7.2013
Words are powerful. Let's look at some of the words used in the poster. The adjectives create positive images, the verbs make us feel like we're on a journey, and the nouns spark our curiosity. These persuasive techniques are what make the poster so appealing. Let's discuss how these words make you feel.

📝 Remember to use a diary format:
[Date], [Day], [Weather]

Instead of "I was scared," try "My heart was pounding..."

1.7.2013
When writing your diary, remember the format. More importantly, use these tips to make your writing come alive. Use sensory details to help your reader see and hear what you did. Instead of just telling us you were scared, show us with your words. And don't forget to use powerful adjectives and verbs!
