Dear Readers,
How important is it in this election year for students to understand how we as a country choose our President ? We all may tire of election news, but this is a great time to give kids a grasp of the details of something big they will soon be part of.
Voting turnout has been pathetic in America in recent years. Are voters feeling overwhelmed by the process? Could it be that many citizens lack knowledge of the election process? Help your children and students to become strong citizens who will someday exercise their right to vote with pride. Knowledge helps overcome fear and frustration.
In this article, American Presidents, you will find a list of the forty-three US Presidents in order with their terms of office. I include the inaugurattion oath and also list the qualifications for running for office .
Try these ideas and simple games for learning the Presidential facts.
Two of my previous articles deal with the electoral college and how a person is elected to an office through the use of a mock election in the classroom. Read Election Fun.
Good day,
