European Election Traditions

Introduction

Every five years elections are held in Europe.

 

But what is it actually about? 

 

Task

You are each assigned one of the larger countries of the EU and a political party of that country. You will each create a blog and write (in English) about their country's voting habits and political traditions and alignments. You must write as if you were a politician from named party who had just been elected to represent that country in the EU parliament. 

 

Process

First make some research on the internet, watch out and choose the websites critically.

Now make a blog post on either Instagram, Twitter or Facebook.

And make sure to update your post continuously.

Game introduced and guided by the teacher.
