The Election

You can only vote for one person -- Obama or Romney.  You can't vote for both candidates.  We will vote in a voting booth.  You can only vote one time. When adults vote, they do a lot of reading about the candidates.  You have to be 18 or older to vote.  Parents will help us make a voting booth.  Everybody can vote for who they want.  You have to be 35 years or older to be a president. You have to be a US citizen.   Every 4 years you can vote for president of the United States.  Don't make fun of the other person's candidate.  Please get out and VOTE!  You vote for the president and vice president.  Every president has a vice president.

Give Me Five

This is a way for us to quiet down right away.  The five means:  Lips are zipped.  Legs are crossed.  Eyes are watching.  Ears are listening.  Hands are still.  Mrs. Stickler, the guidance counselor, taught us this.  We have done well.  We're practicing this at school and at home and in the gym with all the other grades.  We practice it in Mrs. Riggs' room.  It's good to practice and the more we practice, the better we get.  If we are too loud, the teacher says, "Give me 5."  It will last a whole school year.  When we get older, we can help others learn this.
