Election... It's a Dirty Word and Classroom Topic

I was having a brief conversation with my friend, Angela Lee , and she brought up an extremely important point. Many of us may be World History educators, but students still walk into our classrooms with questions about the election. We have a live event coming up about civil discourse, but I must ask you all....

How are you handling student questions about the election and all the stuff swirling around it? Bonus points if you link resources, videos, or materials. I know tons of teachers are struggling to find balance, especially going into this last month before the election, and I would like to help ease their minds with sound instructional practices.

    I try to stick to the facts as much as possible, and I was adrift when Nate Silver left FiveThirtyEight pretty abruptly along with many of my most trusted poll watchers.

    Anyway, he's reemerged at Substack https://www.natesilver.net and his free posts put the election in perspective and provide some interesting nuggets to talk about with students.
