Tuesday, October, 30th We did a mini lesson about the election then, we got a graphic organizer and we got to use laptops to research two issues facing voters for this election.We learned what each candidate would do to help with each issue.
Wednesday, Oct. 31st (Halloween)
We looked through a newspaper and read an article about Old Mill Elementary School (another school in our community) and how they had a mock election, then we had to write an idea we could use for our mock election that we are having. A mock election is a fake election that can sometimes tell how the real election might go.

We held our mock election. Then two people from each fourth grade class got to help get the supplies ready for the election. The two people from our class who got to go to the work room to help set up were Sara Brady and Jenna Miles. At the election we had to fill out a ballot and put it in our grade level box. After we voted we got a sticker that said “I Voted “. Then Sara and Jenna counted all the votes for primary and intermediate classes. Barack Obama won for primary and Mitt Romney won for intermediate. Barack Obama won overall for our school and for our countries's presidential election. Now Barrack Obama is our president for four more years.
