Prepare:
Remember that you need to attract people’s attention with a catchy phrase or title. Then you need to keep their attention by being direct and creative. Reading or watching a PSA should take only a minute of people’s time. The public service announcement should include:

Your imaginary name
An explanation, in your own words, of one of the first 10 amendments to the Constitution
An explanation, in your own words, of why it is important for a person to know the amendment you chose
An example of how the amendment would be used today
Sample explanation of the Tenth Amendment
The Tenth Amendment limits the power of the federal government by giving certain powers to the states. For example, the Constitution does not give the federal government the power to create schools. That means that states have the power, and the responsibility, to create schools. It is important for citizens to know this amendment so they can ask either the state or national government for something they need. For example, if people wanted class sizes to be smaller, they would need to ask the governor and legislature of their state—not the president—to make a law.
Present:
You can choose to present your public service announcement in many different formats. Here are a few suggestions to get you started.

Brochure: Create a brochure about the Bill of Rights. Your brochure should be made on paper folded in thirds. You may use a computer program to create the brochure and use photos or drawing tools for illustrations.
Television spot: Create a television spot about the Bill of Rights. Consider what images and information will best inform your viewers. Your television spot should be one to two minutes long.
Podcast: Create a podcast about the Bill of Rights. Your podcast should be one to two minutes long. Consider how your tone of voice and possible sound effects might enhance your content.
Poster: Create a poster about the Bill of Rights. Consider using photos or drawing tools to illustrate your poster.
Your public service announcement announcement must be typed. If you choose to create a video or podcast, the script should be typed and submitted as well. Please help!
