Classroom President

Introduction

Presidential Elections are held in America every 4 years. Presidential candidates must present their points of view in a campaign, which also contains debates, marketing strategies, and appealing to the needs of the citizens. It is important that students understand the history of voting and the importance of voting.

  • If nobody volunteers, I will draw 4 student names from a hat
  • These candidates can choose a partner to develop a presidential campaign
  • I will ask for 4 volunteers to be presidential candidates
  • The rest of the students will take time exploring the history and process of campaigning. This can be done alone or in small groups
  • The students will vote for the class president after the presidential debate
