They shared why I would be a good president.

Elections and Voting Activities

I just made an I Have Who Has Election theme set game.

It’s a fun Around the World looping type game. Each card states a question related to voting and elections. Students each hold one or more cards and need to listen and respond with their card if it is the correct answer. Play continues in sequence until all cards have been read.

Grab it at my store

And if you missed my last post there's this: Election TV Ad writing

 Aso, here's a 5 page election writing prompt pack!

Cute kid quote:

One of my students wrote in response to character traits of a president:

"Well I think the president would need a squeaky clean record."

Election Ads: Persuasive writing

Election time fun is here!

 My students created TV ads for a candidate of their choice and then wrote a persuasive speech to go with it. We talked about catchy slogan writing and selling your candidate. This was one project every student wanted to get right to work on. Some picked to write about an animal or cartoon character and others chose to write about themselves or a classmate as a candidate. So fun!

The lead in to this lesson was the wonderful book Vote by Eileen Christelow.
