Right around Election Day, the students were given a special assignment to either pretend to run for political office, or create a proposition that would make life better! This was persuasive writing, so they had to use good adjectives to describe themselves, or be very clear on what their proposition would achieve. Enjoy these samples from across the grades!
Prop 1522 by Ashley (2nd grade)
Prop 1522 would make it so there are two school days and five-day weekends. And we'd only have one piece of homework a week. Kids could play more at home because they don't have to go to school. They can also not do their homework until the last day of the weekend. If you want more weekends than school, then vote for Prop 1522!
Say Yes to Prop 85! by Mina (3rd grade)
My prop is Prop 85: Every school gets a theme park! Why is this a good prop to say yes to? It would make sad people happy, kids would like school, and they would be inspired. If you like fun and theme parks and want school to be more fun, say yes to Prop 85!
Prop. #93: Every school should assign less homework!
by Rylie (4th grade)
Every school should assign less homework.That way, children have time to relax and take a break.
Schools should assign less homework. Most children need time for extra-curricular activities. Some kids have a DREAM that they need time to focus and practice to achieve. The kids that don’t have extra-curricular activities can take that time to sit back and relax. This benefits teachers because at school, the students are not tired or sleepy and their brains are refreshed and ready to learn. Also, having less homework gives us time for extra-curricular activities which weyou can put on your college applications. That helps you get into a good college which helps you get an enjoyable and good job and that makes your life better.
REMEMBER…
VOTE for proposition #93!This gives time for kids E.C.!
Joon for President! (4th grade)
If I would be president, I would be for so many reasons. I am smart, brave, fair, and kind.
As your next president, I would make more churches to spread the gospel. I would almost make a PERMANENT law that you have to have a baby harp seal photo in you rhouse, because they are cute. Finally, I would create Proposition 99, which would make homework illegal. My prop would solve the stress of kids. Some kids get stressed with too much homework. But kids will need to do some more work at school to be fair.
Please vote for me, for my knowledge, bravery, forgiveness, and kindness to thrive!
Vote for Prop 66, The DroneZone!
by Chuyu (5th grade)
I’m here to tell you about Proposition 66, DroneZone. This Proposition helps make more space on the surface of the earth by moving roads underground and switching from gasoline powered cars to nuclear powered human transportation drones. It also lets drones park in the sky and charge in stations in the sky.
America should switch from cars to drones because there is no more space for nature and more buildings. Moving everything underground would solve that problem. Another problem that is solved is pollution. The drones will be non-exhaust to prevent air pollution. These drones are silent because of a complex design of the rotors. They’re also faster than most cars with an average speed of 110 miles per hour so you can get wherever you need to go faster. Their nuclear power saves money and doesn’t need a recharge until two years after the last recharge. This will get rid of electric and fuel stations and therefore save a lot of space. These drones will range from two to thirty-two seats and use hydraulic doors and windows. The drones will be cheaper than cars because of the simple production line.The drones will also be more sturdy and stable because of the aluminum shells. These great drones will fly in underground tunnels that have openings to the surface every one-eighth of a mile to let you get to your destination on the surface. These roads will be stable and have room for up to 24 drones at a time.There will be four columns of six drones each. The roads are situated underground because of easier fire and chemical control. The drones will drop you off and then park in a designated spot in the sky. It will stay there until you call it again when you want to leave. The drone auto-drives and you only have to tell it where to go. This would absolutely eliminate drunk driving.. The roads that already exist will be destroyed to build more houses, stores, schools, and business offices. The money will be raised by donations and taxing you based on how much you earn per month so no one becomes broke. This way everything is fair.
If you want more space on earth for a better future, vote yes on Proposition 66, DroneZone.
VOTE FOR PROP. 21- TRAFFIC SHOULDN’T SLOW ANYONE DOWN! by Maya (6th grade)
When you are late for school or work, traffic only delays you. No one likes to be stuck in traffic when they are trying to get somewhere. If you are one of those people, take a look at Prop. 21 !
This proposition will make good use of your tax dollars by building better roads to the places you want to get to. By observing which places are the most popular, like work buildings and schools, we will use your money to build more and wider roads, so the traffic flow will spread out. For example, if there is a road to a Google work building, where a lot of other roads meet at once, I will build more roads from each area that lead to the same place. I would also build more roads that are equally direct. So, if there was an accident on one road, and it was blocked off, there would be another option, and it wouldn’t be a long, windy road that makes you late. Now, some people might say that they don’t want to pay more money for taxes, but it’s only a few dollars more for much less traffic. Doesn’t that sound awesome? No more late arrivals because of a traffic jam!
If this sounds great to you, vote for Prop. 21, because traffic shouldn’t slow anyone down!
Wishes Accomplished, by Angela (6th grade)
Hello fellow citizens, my name is Angela and I am running for the office position of mayor. As your mayor, I will be a respectful communicator towards my community. I will be helpful to my people by solving whatever requests or concerns they propose. I will always be confident about my decisions that have been thought through thoroughly before I make them come to life.
The first thing I would do is make school start at 8:30 A.M, which is important so students can be less tired if they sleep late with lots of homework the previous night. There would also be less traffic at that time because lots of adults go to work at 8:00 or 8:15 A.M. In schools, I want libraries to be in every single school so students can fulfill their thirst in reading. Second, I would have more workers clean the dirty streets that have been untouched because of how bad the condition is originally from pollution of homeless people. Talking to the governor, this plan would definitely work! Last but not least, every school should teach all the education needed to make students prosper, instead of there being different levels of learning in public and private schools. An example is that we learn more complex math, writing, and grammar in certain private schools, and vice versa for public schools.
Angela as mayor, wishes are solved everywhere.
