Who won the election??
This past week the students participated in a mock election at our school! The students were able to go to classrooms and give speeches to represent their candidates. Then this week, those students in the classes were able to come to the room and vote for who they thought would be the best candidate. All of the students were together for this and I believe the kids enjoyed getting to know the younger and older students in the GATE classes! They all worked really hard and I am very proud of them for learning all that they did. We had a great turnout from the school as well as from some of the other teachers.
Do you want to know who won???
Well, we were kinda silly and decided to use Pokemon as our candidates. So there was an election of Pikachu vs. Vaporeon! Each grade level had two teams (one team for each candidate/party) and did their best to create the best campaign for the election!
