You've got a point...
By Iagree

Clip to ScrapBook   
I remember when my son was in Kindergarten, years back, and many of his classmates explained that they voted for George Bush Sr. in our classroom election, because "Mean old Clinton wants to take away all my Daddy's money." They must have been listening around the kitchen table when their father's (many of whom were Doctors) were talking.

Hmmmm...

I found some interesting, age appropriate and fun information about the election process on Nick.com. I am even teaching them an election rap I found on Nick (Election Connection, which explains the voting process. The students love it and go around humming it all the time. Nickelodeon also has a book out called Election Connection.

Has anybody out there found any other neat sites?
