Kindergarten and 1st-grade students at OHK8 participated in a voting activity as they learned how to count tallies during math. They stood in line to vote on a matter that was very meaningful to them, which food item they liked most, hamburgers or hotdogs. Each student had a laminated voter registration card to present to vote. We talked about what it means to be a good citizen in our country. After a long day at the polls, hotdogs won most votes. The students celebrated by doing the hotdog dance. They enjoyed learning about voting and cannot wait until they are old enough to let their voices be heard!
