The Election is Coming! What are you doing to study the Election Process?

The Presidential election is just around the corner. What are you doing to prepare for the election and how are you teaching your kids about it?

Here are some resources I have found. We plan to use several of them. You may find them useful.

Governor Mike Huckabee has a free gift to homeschoolers. Click here for a free Election Day: Choosing Our President DVD. This DVD will help your children understand the election process. We have ours and are looking forward to watching it. Stay tuned for a review.

A Journey Through Learning has some great lapbooks to study the election process.
