Today we learned that part of being a good citizen is voting when you turn 18.
We held an election today and voted for our favorite book character.
Our candidates were James from James and the Giant Peach and Sophie from The BFG.
After learning about elections, we created our own voter registration cards.
We then watched our candidates give speeches using Vokis of each character. A Voki is an avatar on the computer that talks to us.
We then got into our voting booths (study cubbies) and cast our votes on our ballots!
After tallying the votes, Sophie won the election!
Here is a picture of voter registration cards! I apologize that they are turned the wrong way - it is saved the correct way but the blog is presenting it sideways.
