I learned that you have to think back very wisely when choosing. Because you wan't to make sure whoever your voting for will actually make a difference. I also learned that when in line for electing, its very organized. The gr.5's did incredible organizing the election process. The girl's soccer team came 1ST!!! Im so proud of us. Gymna5t and Zoella did an incredible job! Good job you guys! Hehehehe! SoccerMonkey, Westcoastwhale, shadowbacon, and the other boys soccer team, we beat you!!! Can't wait for the game against you guys! See you guys tommorow!

Justin Trudeau did an AMAZING speech!! Its incredible as to how he doesn't have notes to read from. He just thinks of it in is head and says it. I loved his speech very inspiring. Although at the end he kept on repeating the same thing. Of how he wouldn't be there if it wasn't for us, ect. Overall his words were true, I can't wait to see Canada change. Did you know that his father was once a prime minister of Canada!? I guess it runs in the jeans!

The math question is: Which fraction is greater? 1/2 or 3/5 What a great soccer game girls!!! We did awesome! I learned what constitutional monarchy meant and a whole lot of information from the liberal party. I also learned what the liberals meant when they said to lower taxes on the middle class and increase the rate on the wealthy. I'm glad we studied about the elections because I didn't know too much about it but now I know a lot.

3/5!!! 1 is half of 2 so that is 1/2. 3 is more than half of 5 because even though 5 is a prime number half of it is 2.5. What's greater 1 or 2.5? 2.5!!!

Like 2BARUNNER said you have to be careful when you elect a candidate because there would be new promises and laws that might effect you.

I have loved doing this election subject! I have had a lot of fun on it! I learned how persuasive facts and promises can make the difference. It's not just about the leader or the party, but it's the cold hard facts and promises. For example: the conservatives promise to protect senior pensions from being taxed and crack down on criminal gangs. Nothing may relate to you but if you do your research it makes all the difference for your future! Quote of the day: "Ohana means family. And family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten."~Lilo and Stitch. Have a good night everyone!

I've learned so much this unit: I've learned how there are 338 ridings this year, and each riding elects an MP (Member of Parliament) then that MP represents there respective party. Before this unit I knew nothing of the election process.

I was practicing for the math test on the second website you posted and I did I for a long time so it said you have reached your daily limit practice. When I tried to go on again it didn't let me. Oh well I've practiced enough for now.

I learned that you have to do research before you vote because then you can make the wrong choice of who you want to be the prime minister.

LIBERALS WON THE LECTION YES!!!!! Wait, just because I was in the debate party doesn't mean I have to like them. Oh no. Reality check incoming... More bridges, more jobs, lower taxes, raise taxes. Un-balanced, I think. WOAH. Way off-topic (sorta). I think I learned you gotta research a lot to understand who you're gonna vote for. Wow. Gotta was underlined for error because it's slang but sorta was not. What?!?! Check it and see for yourself.

I learned that there are many complicated things in an election process.In term of an argument,we must have enough information to be able to answer questions,so finding enough information is always tough. Mainly,I learned that it's difficult to respond to questions when there is not enough information and eloquence. For me,it was hard to make questions because I don't know how to address it properly.

I have learned that the government is broken down into three parts . Municipal , provincial and federal. Each level takes care of their own responsibilities. GO LIBERALS!!!!!!!!
