  1. This advert was made by Harry. I like how he has included customers’ opinions in order to make it persuasive and fun for the audience!

    1. I like how ur letter is persuasive and the illustrations r quite good. ur illutrations r better than mine.

  2. This advert was made by Ava. I like how eye-catching and informative it is. The slogan is also very catchy!

  3. I really like the letters and advert writing look amazing and letters are stunning

  4. I really like how you put lots of information into your amazing work. I really liked how it was described.

  5. Your work about the gouty chair was fantastic. To improve you should make your advert more eye catching. Love your artwork by the way.

  6. I love all of your creations . To be honest, Ambler has done the advert amazingly . I wish you could put more work up. Good luck on your next piece of work!

    1. I like how you put some pictures and colour. I like how you put writing too. The picture stands out more than the writing.

    1. Thank you for sharing Kiri and I hope you’re proud of your effort.

      I’m sure other pupils will leave comments on your work.

      1. Hi Ahlam , I want to say that I agree with you . Kiri has put a lot of effort in his (r her) work . It is great.

    1. I think the work is SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      PS: When I said supercalifragilisticexpialidocious , I meant surprised (in a good way).

    2. I really like your title. It is really good because it sort of rhymes and also uses alliteration.

    1. Help Abuser and Adnan , I done the same piece of art .I really like ur work. Maybe u could add some more of facts?.

  7. Maria created an advert to promote the Mechanical Swan created by John Joseph Merlin.
    King Class voted for this advert because it met all the key features of an advert which we discussed. For example it is eye-catching, there is a use of slogan and use of powerful adjectives. We believe her advert is very persuasive. What do you think?

  8. comment

    Your advert is very funny because you put Amazon and Ebay in it. Also your advert has a date and a particular shop to buy the clock.
    The shop is called DANCY.
    Why did you write your date as 1781 April 1?
    Perhaps next time use adjectives and pronouns more often.
    You could have used a olden name for the shop.

    1. Hi Eylul,

      I’m sure they’ll find your feedback very helpful. You’ve outlined what you like about the work but also made some sensitive suggestions.

  9. I really like your advert ,it has made me want to save up for your wonderful skeleton clock even though I have a watch. You have priced this product at a very good price. Perhaps next time correct the name to John Joseph Merlin.

      1. Hi Ahlam,

        Thank you for commenting on another pupil’s work. What in particular do you like about it?

    1. I really like your advert . It’s unique to the others . This is because that yours is the only one which is about the silver swan. It’s not bad to be the odd one out. I’m saying it is good that it is different .
      PS: I also like that you put the “SUPER S” on the headline!

    2. I really like how the colours really stand out in your picture, I also love your picture

    3. I love your work Tillie it is great me and my class loved it when we saw it on the blog this morning.

  10. I like you advert because you put amozon and e-bay .Why did you pick the skeleton clock? Was it your favorite one?

  11. Well done Yasmina and Angelina. I like how you have used special offers and humour. Is this your favourite invention that John Joseph Merlin made? And if it is why? My favourite invention is the mechanical silver swan. Perhaps next time you could put them into smaller chunks of writing.

  12. Your work was really funny and I would like to check in Amazon or Ebay. What is your favourite invention what he made. Perhaps next time you can split it up little bit

    1. Well done Diego and Nancy. We really enjoyed reading your advert. In particular we liked the use of humour and the special offers and how you added examples to persuade potential buyers. It’s a shame the offer has ran out, we would have loved to buy this famous clock! Perhaps we’ll search on ebay. Is this your favourite John Joseph Merlin’s invention? And if so why? We thought that perhaps next time you could organise the text in smaller chunks to make it easier to read.

    2. I like the humour that you have used and I also like the joke you made about amazon and eBay. And don’t worry I will check it on eBay at home. Perhaps next time you will use smaller chunks if you do another one. You could have more adjectives.

    3. Your work was really funny and I would like to check in Amazon or Ebay. What is your favourite invention what he made. Perhaps next time you can split it up a little bit

    4. Well done Diego and Nancy. I like the offers and the humour . Too bad the offer’s gone. I was 300 years late! I’ll check on Amazon and Ebay. Is the skeleton clock your favourite John Joseph Merlin invention? If yes why?

    5. Well done Diego and Nancy your advert is very funny. Ebay or amazon is out of skeleton clocks so where else can you find it? P.S did you get DANCY from Diego NANCY combined. is the skeleton clock your favourite JJ Merlin invention?

    1. I really like the way you described the skeleton clock plus the use of adverbs but what I think you could improve is maybe you could like tell us what it dose and why we should buy the skeleton clock. I also really like your heading and the swirly writing. You have made me inspired by Thomas Merlly and I now want to become an inventor to.

    2. I really like your advert. It’s really nice because you have given benefits and a price. Is the Skeleton clock your favourite John Joseph Merlin’s invention? You could have made the price a little lower and the slogan a bit catchy.

    3. I read your advert and I liked it. It was really nice. I liked that you added special offers and a price. Do you think the skeleton clock was the best invention? Could you make the price lower because its just to much and the slogan could be a little bit more catchy.

    4. I read your advert and I liked it. It was really nice. I loved that you added special offers. Do you think the skeleton clock was the best invention? Could you make the price lower because its just to much and the slogan could be a little bit more catchy.

    5. Well done Yasmina and Angelina I really like your advert especially your slogan”The inspired golden clock”.Also I like the part when you said that the golden clock is £444,44.Do you like this item because if you do explain why. Perhaps next time you could spell things right.

    6. I truly do think that you should correct the name of the inventor who is actually called john joseph merlin. I really like the title of your persuasive advert as it stands out and explains a lot about the product. I will definitely be selling a couple of thousands of computers, diamond jewellery, flats, cars etcetera to buy this clock I really like the sound of a clock being made out of large wooden shoes although in the picture it seems to be made out of cogs not clogs.

    7. I like your advert very much , the facts and jokes. But he was called john joseph merlin , and you spelled cog Incorrectly.

        1. It was called Georgian because at that time there were 4 kings ruling at the time and their names were George.

    8. I think the name is john joseph merlin (his birth name was Jean Joseph merlin). Anyway, I really like your work

    9. I really like yur work! If it was at a sale, I would obviously buy it. I think that the skeleton clock was a really cool invention cos it is so shiny and gold. I also like John Joseph Merlin because of his inventions.
      NICE WORK!!!!!!!

    1. Hi Zac and Harry,

      Thank you for being the first to share your wonderful advert. I can see you’ve used many features of a persuasive advert but I’ll leave it to others to identify them. Keep up the hard work!

    2. We thought this was a really inspiring article. You included many great uses for the skeleton clock (we especially liked the showing off at parties idea), lots of powerful adjectives and the history of the inventor.
      Well done!!!

      1. Hi King Class,

        Thank you for taking the time to comment on another school’s work.

        I’m sure they’ll appreciate the feedback.

    3. Zac and Harry I enjoyed it so much why did you choose skeleton clock why not roller skates I wood like to know.

    4. Hi Zac and Harry, I just love your ad! :). I like it because you included soooooooooooooooooooooooo many adjectives. Can you give a link where I can buy it? If you don’t that’s fine to me. Thanks. Perhaps next time you make the writing look bigger. So, are you going to make more adverts? Anyways do you like to blog in your spare time? Bye for now!!!!!!

    5. well done zac and harry I like the way you have arranged your text you have definatly got your point across well maybe next time add a special offer or something what do you think is the best invention from jhon joseph merlin pesonaly I think the gouty chair is but that’s just my opinion:)

      1. Hi Adnan, do you like my and one of my best friend’s work? Anyway, you’r still one of my best friends!

    6. This advert is really fantastic , because it is very persuasive and has great facts about the artefact.

    7. I like that you have said,”People of the 18th centur would pay all there money for this clock.

    8. This is my work !! Dear everybody, I really love the feedback, keep it coming. Also i would like to say a special thanks to my best friend harry who also did the work with me. 😉

    9. I like the way you have described the skeleton clock. I also like the way you have put the picture in the middle.

    10. We have spotted all the amazing stuff in are work. Hope other people spot them!

    11. I like the way you use persuasive langue and we did the same thing. If I was going to buy it I would because I like the way use different langue . I think that you took time and effort to do the work. I think that your staff must be very happy with you .I hope you liked my reply.
