Conclusion to election

Thinking Questions:

1. How does it make you feel to have the power to vote?
2. What did you learn from this lesson?
3. How important is it to you to learn about issues before you vote?

Example:

1.  Having the power to vote makes me feel very important.  I like being able to make decisions.  
2. I learned a lot from this lesson.  I had to register to vote, I got to cast a ballot, and got a red sticker like Mommy and Daddy do.
3. It is very important to learn about the issues. It matters more then the candidates running. 

Recess or no recess?

Respond to why you feel there should be recess or why you feel there should not be recess.

For example:

I feel there should be recess.  I feel this way because it helps me stay focused in the classroom more.  It is fun to run around and play with my friends.
