Your bumper sticker must be appropriate. When you have finished, cut out your bumper sticker and put your name on the back.
2. On an attached piece of paper, write a descriptive paragraph about your message. The paragraph must include an explanation of the theme expressed by the bumper sticker, and reasons for its importance.
