Presidents, Elections, and Voting
We are well entrenched in the presidential primaries with Iowa's Caucuses and New Hampshire's primaries occurring in the last two weeks, and South Carolina's primary this week. Tomorrow is President's Day, and our Wisconsin primary is April 5th. With so much media coverage surrounding presidential candidates, the concept of voting, and President's Day holiday, below are some resources. The first offers a handful of terrific picture books to help explain how a president is elected and highlights of past presidents. The second resource is a Scholastic activity appropriate for grades 4-8 where Professor Carlotta Facts asks students to determine the mystery person with the fewest number of clues. The third resource is from ReadWriteThink to help students better understand the voting process. This unit is appropriate for grades 3-5.
