1. Warm Up – March 11
10 Minutes to review for your test on Political Parties and Elections

2. After the Test… Bring your test and answer sheets up to my desk
Grab a handout from the front and use the links for the Senate and House of Representative on today’s date on my website to complete it
NO MUSIC, NO PHONES, CAN USE YOUR CHROME BOOK TO RESEARCH BUT NEEDS TO BE QUIET UNTIL EVERYONE IS DONE WITH THE TEST

3. Presidential Debates
If your candidate won their primary – you are helping them prepare for the debate
Make sure they can answer any questions about your party’s stances on taxes, immigration and gun control
They also need to be aware of the other party’s stances on the same issues so they are ready to respond to what the other candidates are saying
Prepare a closing statement that your candidate can read at the end of the debate – their last chance to win people’s vote
If your candidate loses their primary – you are preparing questions to ask the candidates
Work with your group to create questions so everyone does not have the same questions
Must have one question for each party for each issue (write the party and issue for each question – For example: Green Party – Immigration)
