2nd grade students will conduct a project-based learning assignment on the 2016 United States election. Working in groups, students will research the candidates, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, and their positions to create a presentation educating their classmates. Students will learn about the election process and hold a mock election in their groups. Over seven weeks, they will research the candidates, prepare presentations, present to the class, and observe the real-life election results. The goal is for students to gain an understanding of the U.S. election process and its importance.
