Municipal elections.

I have to say that I m truly impressed with the results of this project. Elections is something quite dull for children, so I decided we were preparing a kind of of real elections in class and, by doing this, they would adquired the required contents and vocabulary.

This are some things we did:

• Every group would be a party. They chose their name, propose a candidate to be the Mayor and decided the ideas and proposals.
• We prepared an eletoral program. Here they included the municipal district in Albacete and Council organization, Mayor and councillors functions,...
• We learnt about adverts and we applied it to design an electoral advert. We chose colours, materias, a logo, a catchy sentence...
• We prepared a speech.
• We wote a leeter to voters.
• We all voted.

Finally, we had the same amount of votes for two parties, so... we have to negociate!!!!
