Project 6 — Endorse a sports drink (Grades 4-6, 7-9)



|

|
Sports drinks like GatoradeTM are a "big bucks" industry, often using athletes to endorse their products. If you were an Olympic athlete, which sports drink would you support? Check out the selection of sports drinks at a nearby supermarket or convenience store, and decide which one you would endorse, based on its ingredients. Explain to your class why you chose this brand. You should mention the long-term and short-term effects of ingredients such as sugar, caffeine, or sodium, and how they affect performance. Compare the health benefits of your sports drink to a can of cola or a bottle of water. Can you think of a cool slogan for your drink?
