Wisconsin Students e-mail the mayors with questions about cities in general or specifically that mayor's city. We greatly appreciate the above mayors for helping us out and increasing student interest in learning via the Internet. State of the City Address Evaluation As mayor of their Sim city, students need to address their Sim citizens on the state of their city. Students write a speech using data from their performance sheets and daily goal sheets. Students then orally present their speech to classmates who act as citizens of the city and ask questions of the mayor.
Students use a spreadsheet to create graphs for the citizens to look at.
Virtual mayors will post their speech to their city's web site as a PowerPoint presentation. I also printed out excerpts from the speech that they can read through to get a better idea of what a state of the city address should include.
