Today's schedule is C-D-Lunch-B-A
C - Criminology 12 - Today we are back in the library working on our next journal/blog entry. You need to create your own "Theory of Violent Behaviour" (your own views on where violent behaviour comes from) and post it on the blog. Use your brainstorming of violence and entertainment from the weekend to help. Find one story from BC or Canada about a violent crime and try to apply your theory to explain why the crime took place. Don't forget I need your typical victim of crime posters today and you have a quiz on victims and victimology tomorrow.
B - Social Studies 10 - Today we are going to review 4000 years of "human history" in 25 minutes...strap on your seat belts family! We are doing this to get us up to speed on the early 19th Century in Canada.
From grade 9 I hope you remember the "Seven Years War" (also known as the "French and Indian War" in the U.S.A. and "La Guerre de la Conquête" in Quebec). I hope you remember the impact of the Treaty of Paris in 1763 on "British North America", the effects of the Quebec Act of 1774, and the American War of Independence. I hope you remember the United Empire Loyalists and the creation of Upper Canada in 1791. Lastly I hope you remember Tecumseh, Brock, Secord and the War of 1812.
Today I will ask you to brainstorm two questions...What is a rebellion and Why do rebellions happen? For homework I'd like you to define the following: Family Compact, United Empire Loyalist, Clergy Reserves, Assembly, and Governor. Tomorrow I'll be checking to make sure you accomplished this task for homework.
In case you forgot, here are some websites to help refresh your memory:
Seven Years War website
War of 1812 website
A - Earth & Space Science 11 - Today we will begin our work on rocks. We will identify the various types of igneous rocks, their properties, and discuss the differences in their composition. We'll then focus on how sedimentary rock is formed and will have a few questions and definitions to work on for homework tonight (questions 5-8 on page 70 in the text on magma and igneous rocks).
