ELECTIONS IN 4th GRADE A

Dear "mini" citizens:

We are studying DEMOCRACIES in 4th grade;  learning a lot about  the GOVERNMENT,  THE PARLIAMENT,   THE CONGRESS,  DEPUTIES,  SENATORS,  RIGHTS and RESPONSABILITIES...

At first it was a bit confunsing for us..but now we understand quite well how our system works!

To prove how elections are in a Democracy, we call to elections in 4th grade A, to choose a PRESIDENT!

Here you are the  political representatives showing up their candidacies!

ANd now..let's explain a bit their proposals!


1.LAURA run in the race with some proposals, as putting a water dispenser machine at the  back of the classroom to have some water whenever we are thirsty! 
It would be for free!

2. Andrea declared her candidacy for elections with some interestings ideas, as  putting a huge slide by the window to go to the playground in a funnier and faster way! 
PRETTY AMAZING!

3. Maria focused her program to the environment. FANTASTIC! 
Moreover, she promised daily surprises for everyone! 
Could she manage to do it?... We hope so!

4. Antía stand for President with a FREE-LESSONS FRIDAY!  HURRAY!  
Not sure if the Educative laws will allow it...but...it sounds cool!

5. I wold like to mention the candidacy of LEONOR; who give away some electoral propaganda to all mini-citizens! AMAZING!

She thinks of a  new classroom distribution..with a chill out area to read on the puffs and so on; as she said " like USA Schools!"

6. Pablo for President! He ask for a library full of books and tales to enjoy when students finish their tasks at the classroom! WONDERFUL!

7. PGL (PARTIDO GALEGO LUCAS) did a excellent job with the design of the wallchart. He offers FANS to all students to fight the heat in the classroom after the playground time. LOVELY!

8. Joao,the one!
We don´t have any picture of this candidate...We will upload some pictures soon. 
Sorry for the inconvinience!

9. And finally, Ayohub, the charming candidate.
 He did a great presentation for the audience. He showed a really profesional and responsible attitude!

We apologize for the lack of photos. On the next days we will upload some picts!
......................................................

Thanks to all the candidates, who explained to all the audience their  proposals.

Undoubtedly, the high temperatures  into the class at midday are a real problem for pupils and candidates talked about it a lot!

I hope we can find a solution!

Students made use of  one of the RESPONSIBILITIES like citizens: 

THE RESPONSIBILITY TO VOTE

by the way:

Did you know that Voting is both a right and a responsability?

Here they are some ballots of the process.

Then, on a 2nd stage, they placed their ballots in the elective box.

......................................................

THE DIE IS CAST! (ALEA JACTA EST)

Now it´s time to count the votes!

* As anecdote, a ramdon act happened... A little pig created by Eva wanted to participate and deposit its vote on the box. 

We are sorry for the  pig, but it wasn't on the CENSUS and therefore It couldn´t prove it by showing the Identification card!

Naughty pig... :)

Irea was in charge of writing the votes on the blackboard.

And now...

The official results:

Invalid votes: 1

Blank votes: 0

And the winner is...
