Ms. Hammonds history classes worked on 2020 election prediction maps! They also participated in both Presidential debates as well as the Vice-Presidential debate by “live tweeting” and answering questions with lots of opinions on all.
Second graders learned about the election process as they worked through a booklet entitled “Election 2020: Choosing America’s President”. This booklet was created by Scholastic. The students learned about the requirements to be a presidential candidate, the political parties, campaigning, the voting process, etc. On Election Day, students cast their votes for president.
Mrs. Smith’s first graders also learned about the election process. They read Duck for President by Doreen Cronin and placed their votes for Duck or Farmer Brown. They learned that voters must be thoughtful and patient. In the end, Duck was elected President by the first-grade class.
