PROFILS ET PLATEFORMES POLITIQUES - Lead a class election!

By French Made Fun!

My products are built for middle-schoolers, are never babyish and meet them where they're at. They promote collaboration and push independent, explorative projects.

This 24-page document will have your students exploring Canadian politics and the election process by doing a group research project on platforms, creating an infographic on a politician, discovering their own values (and creating their own platform), submitting their own candidacy for class president, as well as making a brochure and poster to support their campaign. Students will experience a mock-election, will complete registration forms, cast their ballot, tally the votes and decide on a winner. Stickers to encourage voting, and a graph to show tallied votes are included! I love pairing this up with my math unit on statistics and data, and we tend to create charts to show the placings. This can also be easily paired up with units on fractions and ratios to show relationships between parts and wholes.

Through readings and activities, students will develop an understanding of political parties, their platforms, party leaders and teams, the campaign trail, voting and polling stations, voter registration and ballot casting, candidacy and marketing - and they'll be involved, hands-on, at all steps of the way.

Here are the activities you'll find in this transdisciplinary document:

  • "Survol du document"

  • "Cartes des partis politiques" (Political party cards to be printed and cut)

  • "De la vraie politique canadienne" (A graphic organizer for research activity)

  • "Nos sources crédibles" (A graphic organizer to keep track of information sources)

  • "Instructions" (For independent, bibliographic infographic project on a politician)

  • "Justin Trudeau" (A modelled example of a finished infographic to use as a guide)

  • Blank infographic template to be used by students

  • "Qu'est-ce qu'un candidat?" (A short comprehension piece with 2 questions)

  • "Un politicien admirable" (A graphic organizer that has students reflecting on qualities and characteristics of a leader)

  • "Débats électoraux" (An informative piece explaining the need to cater your message to your audience)

  • "Préoccupations + Intérêts" (A two-page activity on representing the voice of your constituents)

  • "Les plateformes politiques" (An activity on making promises about your values, and actionable change)

  • "Votez pour moi" (An explanation for the final project including success criteria)

  • Blank brochure template to be used by students

  • "Jérémie Dallaire #4PREZ" (A modelled example of a finished brochure to use as a guide and reference tool)

  • "Jérémie Dallaire" campaign poster (A modelled example of a finished poster to use as a guide and reference tool)

  • "Ma carte d'électeur officielle" (A printable card for each student to register as a voter in the upcoming election)

  • "Conditions de vote" (An in-depth explanation of the voting process and accommodations available at the polls, and the ways ballots can become nullified)

  • "Bulletin de vote" (A printable card for each student to cast their ballot and vote in the election)

  • 2 pages of stickers

  • "Résultats de l'élection" - a blank graph to record votes and find your next class president!
