    The QFT Primary Lesson introduces scatterplots, how the graphs are used and later leads into an investigation/research adventure for students to determine how the United States president goes through the Electoral College election process. As students research, they find out how the electoral college was in place since the beginning of the  Constitution. Furthermore, students compare how the electoral college was back in the 1700s-1800s compared to now in the 21st century.

    This sounds fascinating! Could you share any available links to sources or material you used in this lesson?

    I agree!  As a U.S. Government teacher, I could definitely use this in my classes.
