According to, ¨See How They Run¨, it says that some group of kids wanted the ladybug to be Massachusetts state bug. The group of kids gave a speech about ladybugs being found all over their state, and eventually they got their bill approved, and the governor signing a law that said the ladybug was Massachusetts state bug. You can see that, if kids put our/their mind to it, we can change the law, no matter the age or size. Another example is, when Shadia Wood learned about the Superfund bill. She now knew that it would clean up some of New York´s most toxic sites. She tried to convince lawmakers, along with a group called, Kids Against Pollution, by sitting on the steps of the state capitol, selling lemonade and selling what she called,¨toxic dump cake¨. Later on, in 2003, the Superfund bill became the law. In the other text, ¨The Birth of the Constitution¨, states that the legislative branch creates laws, which might help you if you disagree with one law, and you can write to them. The executive branch creates laws, if you provide the right funds, you can eventually make a new law, which would make a great difference. In the judicial branch, it settles disputes, or disagreements, about laws. Not all people might agree with the change, so they will have to settle the disagreements. Still, kids can make a change, especially in democracy.]]> 2017-02-14 19:42:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153851075 https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153851623  In my opinion Kids can participate to help in our democracy because they can help change rights or laws.That they don't agree with.  According to the text See how we run kids can make a difference no matter how old they are. Seven year old Shadia wanted New York to clean up.Their toxic waste sites so she made a cake and called it toxic dump cake. Then she would sell it to the governor to help pay for the superfund.

They can also do speeches to the lawmakers to tell them WHAT THEY WANT. In all they can be useful. According to the text, ''THE BIRTH OF AMERICA'' kids can be very useful of whet they do by righting to congress to tell them to change this or that law that can be useful to America! All in all kids can help a lot.]]> 2017-02-14 19:44:04 UTC https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153851726 https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153852829 In my opinion I think kids can vote. In the article "See How They Run" a 7  year old was worried about how much pollution and toxic thier was, so she did a lemonade stand on government stands. In her lemonade stand she made a toxic dump cake to prove a point on how much toxic thier was ( and no it did not have actual toxic.) In the article "The Birth of American Democracy" kids can run in this paragraph if you or a sibling is 18 then you could vote for a president.     ]]> 2017-02-14 19:47:23 UTC https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153852829 https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153853016 In the text "See How They Run'' it said, Kids can be in American Democracy by bugging the living daylights out of them. If you do manage to bug them, you might actually be a part of it. In the text  "The Birth american democracy'' states that you must be 18 or older to vote because that is the law. So any kid that is 18 and younger can't vote.]]> 2017-02-14 19:47:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153853016 https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153853170 In my opinion kids can be part of voting like grown ups .  In the text "See How They Run" it said you could  bug your parents if you can vote . For example you can bug your parents until they get tired. According to the text The  Birth Of American democracy it said that only kids at 18 or above could vote but 18 is not really a grown up . All in all thats why I think kids could vote too.]]> 2017-02-14 19:48:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153853170 https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153853176 In the text "The Birth of American Democracy" and "See How They Run" it explains that voting is an important part of a good government and that you should keep bugging your parents and if your lucky you might be able to pull it off. In the passage "See How They Run" kids also made it possible to make new laws and they show you an example they made the ladybug Massachusetts state bug. In passage "The Birth of American Democracy" it said that five men were working on writing the Declaration of Independence and among those men were Ben Franklin,John Adams,Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington
(i don't know the other ones name).A young delegate person named James Madison proposed ideas he even compromised with people.They also wanted a better government because they didn't want one branch to have too much power. In September 1787 the Constitution was approved but the Declaration of independence was not completely right so they also wrote the Bill of Rights in with allows you to say what you believe and to belief what you believe.]]> 2017-02-14 19:48:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153853176 https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153853305      In the text of "The Birth of American democracy," and "See how they Run".

According to "The Birth of America's Democracy" it said that people 18 and up could participate. Kids should be able to is because kids are smart and should be able to.

For example, in "See How They Run" it says that a kid at age seven named Shadia Wood tried to change the law to clean the worst toxic waste sites in New York. Her and some other kids spent seven years to change the law. According to "The Birth of American Democracy," it says that kids can write letters to the president and other important people.]]> 2017-02-14 19:57:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153855932 https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153856656 In the text "See How They Run'' it says that you can vote on Kids Voting USA. Another thing is that there was a kid name Shadia who made a team called ''Kids against pollution''. In the text "The Birth of American Democracy" it shows how the the birth of American Democracy was made. The American democracy was made by James Madison. James Madison is the father of the American Democracy. There are three different types of branches. The three branches are the Legislative Branch, Executive Branch, and the Judicial Branch. The Legislative Branch has two houses. ]]> 2017-02-14 20:00:14 UTC https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153856656 https://padlet.com/kmarquez1/5cwquvq4536m/wish/153858186 In the text ''See how they run'' it says that you can vote on Kids Voting USA and if your school doesn't have that you can bug your parents. Another way that you can get involved in the democercy is by buging someone who is 18 years  older to vote . For example 2 graders wanted a state bug and lady bugs are foud every where they live.So they conviced the legislater to approve it.
