Election Fun: Show Me Your Card!

A Voter Registration I. D. is a fun way for students to practice writing their name and address.

It's also a good way to assess how they are listening and following directions, as they fill out pertinent information that they should know, on an "important" form.

To make the Voter Registration I.D. more realistic, have students glue their school photograph in the box provided.  If you don't have one, they can draw a self-portrait.

Teacher's sign the template on the teacher blank space, before they run off copies.  So that students can make up their own, refer to your signature, when you are explaining what a signature is to your students.

Have children show you their Voter Registration I.D. before they vote in your mock election.

To show them how important their I.D is, if they've forgotten it, when they come up to vote, send them back to their desk to get it, before they can cast their vote.

Afterwards, you might even want to have a discussion whether they think a voter I.D. is important, and discuss how voters verify who they are in real state and national elections, before they can vote.
