The Political students of Room 8

I have NEVER had a class into politics as much as this year's Room 8. Granted, our Scholastic News has had quite a few articles about the upcoming election, but even so, I'll hear them discussing/debating/arguing points about McCain and Obama while standing in line to go to lunch.

Yesterday we voted - secret ballot, of course. Today I tallied while Room 8 sat in rapt anticipation of the results.

Are you ready? Look...It was wonderful how respectful they were towards each other. Too bad many in our society can't be as gracious to others who don't agree with them.

Be sure and ask your Room 8er the 'Zucchini and Tomato" story. It was retold by me from Peter's, (Kaia's dad) original version!
