Welcome to Teacher Cindy's Blog!

This blog is for my students at Bleiker High School in Asker, Norway. Here I will post things I think you may find interesting. Sometimes they are related to what we are learning about in class. Other times they have to do with English as a language and as a subject. Please jump in and be part of the conversation!

Just for the record, I don't agree that this generation is any more spoiled than any other. But I still think he has some good points!

US Election Schedule

You may have noticed that it's election year in the US again.
The general election is not until November, but first, each state will have a primary election or a caucus. Voters will say who they want to be on the ballot in the general election. The Republicans who are campaigning to be the Presidential candidate get the most attention, but Democrats, Republicans, and the smaller parties (often called "third parties" in the US) are holding primaries to choose candidates for many other offices, both national, state, and local. Four states - Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Florida - have already held their primaries or caucuses.
You can find the primary schedule at this link. The general election is November 6th.
