Election Day Resources

Election Day is on the horizon, so I've collected some resources that I've used (or am *hopefully* planning to use) in the classroom:

*Learn about the electoral college process with "I'm Gonna Send Your Vote to College" from Schoolhouse Rock! -->

*Here's a brief history of voting -->

*Check out Congress for Kids and/or Ben's Guide to the Government to help students find out detailed information about our federal government and the Constitution.

*This blog has some creative ideas for election day activities. In fact, we'll be modifying the Coke vs. Pepsi electoral college activity using cherry and blue raspberry jolly ranchers and having the students color in an electoral college map with results as we go.

Here's hoping for some learning opportunities during this year's election and reporting of results! Happy Election Day!
