Happy Monday! For the next few weeks, Make Shop Monday posts are going to focus on makers from Ms. Raitano's 8th grade English class. Ms. Raitano's class embarked on an advertising unit in September. For this project, students were asked to come up with a product to sell, design and make that product, then create an advertising campaign that encouraged their classmates to purchase their product. We are going to feature several student-created companies and the products they developed. First up is Natalie Marshall whose company made a dual-liquid bottle!

| The first iteration of Natalie's group's design |
Avonworth Resource Center: What product did your group decide to make?
Natalie: Our group made a dual water bottle. This bottle can hold two different drinks at the same time while only having to carry one bottle.
ARC: How did you decide to make it?
NM: We decided to make it because a lot of times we want to take two drinks to sports or school but it is just too much to carry with everything else. This bottle fixes that problem.

ARC: Did you have to change your plan before you produced your final product?
NM: We did have to tweak our plans a little when we were making our product. Our bottle could not stand on its own because it is two water bottles glued to each other. So, we had to make a cup holder so that it could sit anywhere.
ARC: Why should someone buy this product?
NM: Someone should buy this product because it will fix your everyday problem of having to choose one drink out of a million choices and makes it easier to carry two drinks.
Stay tuned for more products from AMS English 8! Thanks to Natalie and her group (as well as to Ms. Raitano for her help with this article!)
