ONE OF THE MEDIA LITERACY QUESTIONS IS: WHO IS THIS MESSAGE TRYING TO REACH; HOW DO YOU KNOW?
Use this chart before, during, or after the Super Bowl game- Sunday February 12, 2023. Have your students complete the last column. (This list does not represent the order the ads will air. To see a chronological list of which ads air in each quarter of the game go here)
QUESTIONS FOR YOU TO CONSIDER:
Who do they think is most likely to be the target audience (it could be more than one) this advertiser hopes to reach? What clues in the ad might be revealing?
NOTE: these commercials –airing in the US—represent only those which have previously been identified. (the list does not include ads that run regionally or locally on FOX affiliates in the US.) Updated regularly.
Rows at the bottom are deliberately left blank for last minute, unannounced spots. Students can write in there.
EDUCATORS: Be sure to go to “Using Super Bowl Ads In The Classroom” for additional handouts, links to the ads, resources and suggestions.
