World War II Propaganda Poster Assignment

Think about the list of activities and causes we made in class, Pick one to support. You may work with a partner on the poster.

For the outline: List how that cause or activity supported the war effort, pick a slogan for the cause, and describe a graphic for the poster. (no need to draw anything yet)
