Brochures

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU’VE BEEN HIRED TO WORK AT THE EASTERN CAROLINA MUSEUM OF SCIENCE!

We here at the museum realize that you are a busy student, so your first duties for work will tie into your classes.

The first major exhibit we’ll be opening is entitled “THE EARTH AROUND US.”

We will need educational and exciting brochures for the lobby and for advertising purposes. As the museum’s newest employees, this responsibility falls on you.

A list of brochures and description of what each needs is included in this packet. Please look over this material carefully and create brochures for a ** total point value of ** ** 300 MUSUEM POINTS **. While making more would delight the museum, it’s simply not necessary.

Your teacher will be assessing these brochures. Please include the appropriate rubric with each brochure you turn in.
