Expected Roles of Students and ParentsEach child is expected to first sign up for what baked good they are going to make. Then, my entire class will be responsible for advertising the bake sale. They can give their parents signs to put up at work or wherever they want. Advertising is the best way to be able to spread the word about the bake sale. A newsletter is also a great way for the students to be creative with advertising the event. I am letting the students come up with their own way to spread the word about the bake sale.
