B - Geography 12 - Today we start with the Simpsons episode Bart vs Australia (you can watch it here). After we find out that in the country Rand McNally water travels backwards, people wear hats on their feet, and hamburgers eat people...we will really make sense of the Coriolis force. No toilets are not affected by the Coriolis force but both meso and macro scale weather patterns are. After we will look at winds and pressure circulations. We'll understand where the permanent areas of high and low pressure are on the planet and figure out what that means for a macro-scale pressure gradient wind pattern. We'll try to understand what the Coriolis force is and see how it affects wind. We'll also talk about the Horse Latitudes, the Bermuda Triangle, and the Doldrums. You will need to complete question 1 from page 176 and questions 9 & 15 from page 177 of your Geosystems textbook.
A - Social Studies 11 - Today with Mr. Jones you'll start with your WWII unit test. If there's time, you'll be introduced to the Cold War and learn how this developed in the aftermath of the U.S.S.R. being an Allied nation during WWII. We will see how a nation which was considered to be a friend can become the "enemy" in such a short period of time.
D - Law 12 - Today we begin our look at courts and trial procedures. We'll focus on courtroom organization and then we'll discuss the roles and responsibilities of the judge, the crown prosecutor, defense counsel, the court clerk, court recorder, and sheriff.
C - Introduction to Law 9/10 - Tomorrow you have your second quiz in Law 9/10 yet today we will venture off to the library to continue work on your project about nasty people. Don't forget you need to hand in your profile of a person who commits criminal mischief (computer hacking) in the class. Complete this as a “dossier file” and imagine that it will be provided to the computer forensics department of the local R.C.M.P. detachment. You may post it to your blog or hand it in to me.
