Kavi's Big Bright Sign
"A poster has one job," said Kavi, pinning up a bright sheet. "It tells one message fast — before anyone walks past! A big heading, a few strong words, and a picture that matches. If I tried to squeeze in a whole story, nobody would stop to read it. On a poster, less says more."

What your child will learn
1One message, told fastA poster carries ONE clear message to the reader walking past. It needs a big heading, only a few strong words, and a picture that matches. Everything on the poster should help that one purpose — and anything extra is left off.
2Read the school posterTap each line to hear it. Notice the big heading first, then a few strong words, then what to do.
3What belongs on a poster?
