American History

The students used Microsoft Movie Maker to create a short movie about voting.  The students were given six guiding questions to answer in the course of their movie.  The type of movie and the script were up to the individual groups.  The guiding questions were as follows:

1.     What is a democracy? Where does this term come from?

2.     What part does voting play in a democracy?

3.     Who can vote?

4.     What is the process to become a voter and to actually place a vote?

5.     What do you need to know before heading to the polls?

6.     What percentage of registered voters actually vote?
