Elections & Voting Activities

Prompt: You will be studying the in’s and out’s of politics through the next couple of lessons. You will be taking a survey to see where you fall in the Political Party “spectrum of beliefs,” conducting research of who qualifies as a candidate, determine what you are running for, and last but not least, create an AD for your campaign. In the end we will be hosting a mock election where your classmates will score your campaign ad on a rubric for contents and persuasion. So, do your research! The more politically aware you sound, the higher you will score! Good Luck! May the odds be ever in your favor!

HOW TO PROPOSE A BILL PROJECT: GETTING YOUR CONCERNS OUT THERE BIG IDEAS: What is a problem in the state of Florida or right here in Lee County that you would like to change? Lets work together to create a solution. ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS: 1. What is a bill? 2. How does a bill become a law? 3. What are checks that the legislative and executive branch has on each other in the law making process? SITUATION: You will be taking on the role of a lobbyist. During these crazy times Florida Legislature is very busy trying to keep us out of another Government shutdown. They have been receiving many petitions and concerns about how things are being run in the state of Florida, especially in areas such as Lee County. You have been chosen to propose a bill dealing with an issue that you feel needs the most addressing. Make sure that your bill is well researched and carefully stated seeing as Florida Legislature is so busy that they are not going to be able to meet with you. Your proposal will be submitted in poster form and due to government shortages; you will be providing a voting box. Please make sure that you advertise your bill well and that there is now question left unanswered, seeing as you will not be there to answer them. Good Luck and let the problem solving process commence. REQUIREMENTS: Poster: Tri-fold stand up board (required) • Title: Make a sharp, bold, and catchy title to draw people’s attention to your Bill Poster. • Name of Representative: “My name is ________” • Your State: “Representative from the state ______” • Details of your bill: o My proposed legislation is: o Definitions: o It will affect: o Who will enforce this bill: o The funds will come from: o I hope this will change: o What Florida Statutes or programs exists now: o Pictures of the bill topic Box: • You will need to create a voting box to place in front of your bill proposition poster in the library so that the selected representatives may go in and vote on your bill like they do in Florida Legislature (Voting slips will be provided to these selected representatives, you do not need to create them).

Cette unité amusante et complète de 66 pages permettra à vos élèves de comprendre les bases de la politique canadienne, les trois types d'élections et gouvernements, la démocratie, la société et notre système électoral. Je couvre en profondeur les élections municipales, provinciales et fédérales et les responsabilités pour chacun de ces gouvernements, la Chambre des communes, les députés, les circonscriptions, l'opposition officielle, les impôts, les priorités et les plateformes politiques.

Les élèves auront de nombreuses occasions à réfléchir, participer et collaborer avec leurs pairs. Ce document de 66 diapositives inclut:

• Un jeu rapide sur la différenciation des règles et des lois.

• Un jeu de style gameshow sur des lois étranges du monde entier.

• 3 bulletins de vote différents à découper et à distribuer pour pratiquer le vote avec vos élèves.

• 15 pages de textes:

• Le gouvernement municipal (avec questions de compréhension + corrigé)

• Le gouvernement provincial (avec questions de compréhension + corrigé)

• La Chambre des communes (avec questions de compréhension + corrigé)

• "Qu'est-ce que le gouvernement?"

My products are built for middle-schoolers, are never babyish and meet them where they're at. They promote collaboration and push independent, explorative projects.

This 24-page document will have your students exploring Canadian politics and the election process by doing a group research project on platforms, creating an infographic on a politician, discovering their own values (and creating their own platform), submitting their own candidacy for class president, as well as making a brochure and poster to support their campaign. Students will experience a mock-election, will complete registration forms, cast their ballot, tally the votes and decide on a winner. Stickers to encourage voting, and a graph to show tallied votes are included! I love pairing this up with my math unit on statistics and data, and we tend to create charts to show the placings. This can also be easily paired up with units on fractions and ratios to show relationships between parts and wholes.

Through readings and activities, students will develop an understanding of political parties, their platforms, party leaders and teams, the campaign trail, voting and polling stations, voter registration and ballot casting, candidacy and marketing - and they'll be involved, hands-on, at all steps of the way.

Here are the activities you'll find in this transdisciplinary document:

• "Survol du document"

• "Cartes des partis politiques" (Political party cards to be printed and cut)

• "De la vraie politique canadienne" (A graphic organizer for research activity)

• "Nos sources crédibles" (A graphic organizer to keep track of information sources)

• "Justin Trudeau" (A modelled example of a finished infographic to use as a guide)

• Blank infographic template to be used by students

• "Qu'est-ce qu'un candidat?" (A short comprehension piece with 2 questions)

• "Un politicien admirable" (A graphic organizer that has students reflecting on qualities and characteristics of a leader)

• "Débats électoraux" (An informative piece explaining the need to cater your message to your audience)

• "Préoccupations + Intérêts" (A two-page activity on representing the voice of your constituents)
