Election Day


Homemade Electoral Ballot

Waiting to vote in our voting booth (a.k.a. the shower)

Reviewing the candidates



We VOTED. Time will only tell if the best man will win.
We wanted our children to experience what election day is like. So on November 4th we opened up our own electoral booth (a.k.a. The shower). We had already studied about the different candidates. We studied about our country and how we became the United State of America. The children loved lining up to go into our booth. Grandma even gave them a treat after (it was said on the news that various electoral locations were offering ice cream and other goodies to those that voted). We had lots of fun with this. The ballots were tallied thanks to dad and the results were in. John McCain won the popular vote and electoral vote. It was a close one though. John McCain winning 3 out of the 5 votes. What a fun day. I love these kids so much. It is so much fun being there teacher.
