Dec. 10-14

This week we've been familiarizing ourselves with events from pre-Confederation history. The following activities have been completed:
- Students matched art pieces to events in the Learning Commons
- Students worked in groups to select the five events they believed to be most historically significant
- Students in 7-4 debated their chosen events with other groups (assessed- see PowerSchool)

Next week, we will continue with the following activities:
- 7-5 debates: Monday Dec 17
- Individual historical significance assignment: determining historical significance
- Pre-Confederation events links

*7-5 reading response marks have also been posted. 7-4 marks will be posted on Monday.

Here's a link to the historical events we're currently exploring. Students who were absent on Monday December 10th missed our introductory activity, and may need to spend some extra time to become familiar with the events.

I'm Back- Again!

Thank you to all of you for your hard work and focus while I was away with the flu. What terrible timing! I was back at school yesterday, and found nearly all students ready to present their art pieces for their reading responses. Thank you and well done! Marks have been posted in Powerschool for your presentations and visual pieces. I will add marks for your written work shortly.

Next week we'll be working on something brand new: stay tuned!
