After the kids read Twilight, they had to create commercials for products that would sell in Forks.
some of them were -
shoes that make you run as fast as Edard
cologne to make you smell like Edward
a spray that keeps away annoying teenage boys

Then they were filmed with the kids doing the acting. The follow up to this was they had to talk about all the various forms of propaganda that was used.
