Voting! What’s It All About?

Before introducing the lesson, have students respond in writing to the prompt, “What I Know about Voting.” Allow students to write in any form they prefer: paragraphs, lists, or graphic representations. This information will be a guide to the discussion, so it’s important to do this writing before any reading or discussion about the voting process.
