This teaching manual supplies lessons designed for elementary students (grades 1 - 5) that establish a foundation for skill-building in recognizing, deconstructing, evaluating, and choosing for themselves whether to accept a tangible product or intangible message. Students will learn to become active, rather than passive, receivers of messaging.
