Doubt Detector

Students read an advertisement and identify the main product, its key claims, and the message the ad wants to communicate. They then write a counterargument explaining why someone might disagree with the ad’s message. Finally, they reflect on why it is important to consider multiple perspectives when evaluating advertisements. This worksheet strengthens reasoning skills, encourages independent thinking, and teaches students to question persuasive messages rather than accept them at face value.
