Census 2010

A few weeks ago in Scholastic News, we read an article about the 2010 Census. It told us about the purpose of the Census, which is to get an official count of the United States' population. It will also tell us how many people in the United States are of which race, and how old they all are. We also learned that if people do not fill out the form, the Census committee will send someone to the home to get the information!

I even brought in my Census form and showed it to the class. We talked about how to fill it out and what information is needed for each person.

I'm curious....how has your family responded to the Census? Has your family received the form yet? Have you sent it back? Did you help your parents complete the form?
