Zusammenfassung:The office of the presidency and the informal process of electing the president are the themes of this issue of "Art to Zoo," a quarterly journal designed for use with students in grades 4-9.

The resource includes background information; 5 reproducible activity sheets and a bilingual (English/Spanish) "Take Home Sheet"; and 3 "Learning About the Presidency"; "Promoting the Candidate"; and "Help a Candidate." A list of resources concludes the instructional guide. (MM)
