War Horse Propaganda Poster

Due: ___________________________________
Job: Your task is to produce a World War One Propaganda Poster. But here is the catch:
your poster should be aimed at horses.

Remember to focus on one of the key reasons for why propaganda posters
were produced:
To recruit men to join the army;
To recruit women to work in the factories and in the Womens Land Army;
To encourage people to save food and not to waste;
To keep morale high and encourage people to buy government bonds.

Criteria:
The illustrations should be a full page in length (8.5 x 11).
Include a slogan
On a separate sheet of paper write a brief paragraph explaining why this is an
effective poster. Use evidence from the text (War Horse) to prove why your poster
would convince a horse like Joey.
The more effort you put in, the better your mark will be. Use colour and try to avoid
stick figures!
