In case you have not heard, we are having a presidential election next Tuesday, November 8th. Our children have seen news coverage about these candidates and have heard adults share thoughts and opinions. Without giving any personal opinions about the political race, we shared 2 videos from www.scholastic.com explaining presidential procedures involving the voting process. We all agreed that 'voting' is a special privilege and one that every American of voting age should take advantage of this privilege.
Next we pretended that we were running for president and had to appoint 3 cabinet members and these members had to make sure the budget was balanced. It was fun to see the selections of the students and working with percentages, they were actually able to balance their budgets. The print out of this activity named them as President.....that was fun.
God Bless America and the Election of our country!!
Have a wonderful weekend.
