Sofia can create an effective announcement by emphasizing the importance of the bake sale for raising funds that directly benefit the school, such as funding for events and activities that everyone enjoys. She should encourage students to view the bake sale as an opportunity not just to support their school, but also to showcase their baking skills and possibly win a prize for the best treat. To motivate her classmates to participate, she could highlight that any volunteers will receive community service hours, making their contribution more appealing. However, Sofia should exclude any negative comments about the competing sports event, as it may dissuade students from attending the bake sale; instead, she can suggest that they can enjoy the event later while still supporting their school in the morning.
