PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

October means ELECTIONS! There are countless resources out there about elections, but this is not your average unit! This unit was designed with young learners in mind and focuses on making key social studies concepts engaging and accessible through eBooks and activities. Throughout this resource, you will teach civics, economics, sociology, history, and geography!

We hope you enjoy this set of eBooks as much as we do!

The topics we cover include:

Civics: Why is Election Day important?
Explore the significance of voting and how it empowers communities with a creative coloring activity where students design their own ballots.

Economics: How much does it cost to run for president?
Teach the basics of campaign financing with a budgeting activity that encourages students to create their own campaign funds.

Sociology: Does the president have to live in the White House?
Explore the social significance of the president’s residence, and let students imagine their own “dream White House” through a fun drawing activity.

History: Who was the first president to…?
Dive into fascinating firsts in presidential history and match each president to their groundbreaking achievement with a memory game.

Geography: How do astronauts vote from space?
Learn about voting logistics from outer space, and let students create a postcard imagining what it would be like to cast their vote from space.

We hope that this will help you and your students to deepen and enrich your understanding of elections and inspire curiosity about the democratic process!

Make SOCIAL STUDIES exciting again!
