The Election

With the election one month away I decided to research the election and children.

We will read: Click Clack Moo, Cows that Type and Duck for President this week. (not related to the election but we are taste testing apples and voting this week, so check back for our results.)

I found one site, but haven’t fully read it, (so enter with caution), that has an interactive site for young children (k-3).

Bella will write about her thoughts on what makes a good president, as well as what she would do as president.

In general, we are talking about facts, opinions and being a person who chooses to stand up for their beliefs. Sounds like thick stuff for a 6.5 year old but not really. At 6.5 Bella already understands that being mean to someone isn’t necessary just because you don’t agree with them. It is sad that many adults still are learning this lesson.

Bella will go with us to vote, I wonder who she will vote for? (as well as Gillian and Erin)
