Today's schedule is B-A-Lunch-D-C

B - Geography 12 - Today we continue our look at the fundamentals of weather by focusing on atmospheric structure and Ozone. After looking at the ways that ozone protects us and understanding how it can be destroyed by CFCs you'll need to complete questions 8 and 9 from page 90 in your Geosystems textbook.

US Environmental Protection Agency Stratospheric Ozone page
European Commission on the Environment Ozone page
Environment Canada Ozone website



A - Social Studies 11 - Today with Mr. Jones you'll be looking at the end of the war in the Pacific (atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki) and in Europe (Operation Overlord or D-Day). You'll watch the first 20 minutes of Saving Private Ryan and will understand the incredible sacrifice that the allied soldiers made in order to gain a foot hold in Europe. NOTE: This is incredibly difficult to watch and our purpose is to understand the both the horrors of modern war and the insanely difficult conditions that the allied soldiers had on Juno, Gold, Sword, Utah, and Omaha beaches. You'll also look at the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the USAF.

D - Law 12 - Today we will we'll continue our look at criminal law procedures and will focus on arrests, arrest procedures, and your rights upon arrest. I'll have you work on questions 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 on page 97 of your All About Law text and then we'll discuss the Karla Homolka plea barganing case from Friday's class (you can finish the activity from Friday if needed).

C - Introduction to Law 9/10 - Tomorrow you have your first quiz in Law 9/10. Relax it's only 15 true/false questions and one written answer question. Today we will venture off to the library to begin work on a small project about nasty people. It will be your job to create a poster on a serial killer.
