White meat or dark meat?

When you eat turkey, do you like white meat or dark meat the best? That's the question of the day! We're conducting a poll and want to know what your favorite is! You can leave a comment with your vote right here on Mommy's blog. Please note that Mommy checks all comments before they go on her blog -- she says it's called "moderating" -- and so you won't see your comment right away, but don't worry! She'll get it up as fast as she can.

We will be using this data in our Thanksgiving lapbooks -- and we'll even make a graph to show our results. Mommy will also post the results here next week. Now we know you're all busy getting ready for Thanksgiving (at least Mommy is), but we will be closing the polls on Sunday, November 30th! So hurry and get your vote in . . . after all, every vote counts!

Thanks for voting!

Our new poll!

Okay, we need your help once again! As part of our unit on the Olympics, we are conducting a poll to find out what Olympic sport is your favorite to watch. Here are the options:

TRACK AND FIELD

WEIGHTLIFTING

CYCLING

EQUESTRIAN

BASKETBALL

GYMNASTICS

DIVING

SOCCER

SWIMMING

You can also choose OTHER -- and vote for a sport not listed above.

How to vote? It's easy . . . just post a comment on this blog entry with your vote. (If you have trouble leaving a comment, you can also send me an email.) Please note that your comment may not appear immediately as I preview all comments to my blog before posting them.

So get your votes in (one vote per family member, please) by WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 20TH AT 11:59 PM! I will post the results in a subsequent blog post! Thanks for your help!

Thanks for voting!

The polls have closed! And the winner . . . by a landslide . . . is (drumroll, please)

THE BEE!

The final results are as follows:

Bee => 21 votes

Ant => 5 votes

Fly => 1 vote (Thank you, Uncle Clark! Lael kept saying, "Someone has to vote for the fly!"

Thanks to all of you for your participation in our poll. Lael was so excited to see all the votes come in! I see an insect unit in our future this summer -- where we will study bees, ants, and other insects (yes, maybe even the fly -- gulp!)

We need your vote!

Lael is working on tallying votes and working with the data in math. She needs a "class" to poll -- so you could help us out. All you need to do is leave a comment with your vote.

Here's the question: If you were going to choose an insect to study, which one would you choose?

The choices are:
BEE

FLY

ANT

(If you want to tell why when you leave your comment, you can . . . but that isn't required!)

Thanks for your help!
