After learning about the United States government and our president, we were so excited to practice the voting process and elect our own "Class President". Each student was given the responsibility of creating their compaign to encourage their classmates to vote for them. They each did this at home as an ongoing homework assignment!
Ava's campaign was very clever. She gave out smarties and dum dum lollipops. Her campaign speech was "Don't be a sucker. Be a smartie. Vote for me"! No one said we couldn't bribe our friends with candy. Ha! Ha!
Once everyone gave their campaign speech, we all used a ballot system to vote for the person we thought would best respresent our class as our "Class President"!
Our "Class President" was elected. And the winner was............... Dontavious Morrow!! Dontavious was awarded a beautiful pin and several other goodies!
I can't think of anyone who would best represent our class as "Class President". It was nice to see that our students felt the same way. Congratulations Dontavious!
Ava received the second greatest amount of votes. Therefore, she was elected as "Vice President". Yay Ava!
That's a great bunch of candidates!
