Election Day Activities for Kindergarten through Second Grade

Election Day rolls around every two years, and often, it goes overlooked until there is a Presidential Election. However, there are many more elections, and even our youngest Americans need to know about the election process in our country. We’ve created a resource to help those early readers and writers understand what Election Day is all about and how it affects the world around them.

Each page of this Election Day book invites students to read a short, decodable text and complete the sentences.  

This mini printable booklet is perfect for use with early readers, who will learn about the U.S. election process and their duties as citizens when they read the short sentences on each page in this printable book. This booklet can be used for school or at home as an easy way to learn about Election Day in the U.S.
