We've been paying attention to the federal election in 3B since the beginning of the year, and the students are eagerly anticipating finding out how the votes pan out on Monday! We've been viewing news coverage of the election during our current events time in Social Studies, and using the leaders' answers to Student Vote questions to inform our upcoming voting decisions. Perhaps the class' favourite election coverage has been viewing an election poll tracker to evaluate the odds of different governments being formed. Recently there was a 1% chance of a tie between the leading parties which was a fun possibility for the class to consider! On Monday each student will get to vote as part of Canada's Student Vote program along with thousands of other Canadian students, and we'll find out the results of both the federal election and student election on Tuesday!
