Thursday, February 17. 2011

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

A & D - Criminology 12 - Today we'll continue our look at crime victim studies. After a brief discussion of the impacts of crime on victims (both short and long term) you'll need to read through the next section in Chapter 3 on "Theories of Victimization" (dealing with Victim Precipitation, Lifestyle, and Routine Activities) - pages 61-64. Your work will be to explain and compare the three theories (as a silo chart) and answer questions 2 & 3 on page 72 in the Criminology: The Core text. This will set you up for your Law & Order Special Victims Unit episode tomorrow and journal entry for Monday.

B - Earth & Space Science 11 - Today we will continue our look at mining in Canada; again focusing on ores, minerals, and fossil fuels (mineral and energy resources). We'll start by continuing the Powerpoint I began yesterday with you on Geologic Resources (yesterday we looked at what metallic, non-metallic, and energy resources and reserves are). After, you'll need to work on the questions from yesterday; For Review 3, 6, 7, 8, & 9 and For Discussion 8 on page 120 in the Earth Science and the Environment textbook in class today.

C - Geograhy 12 - Yesterday we looked at magma, igneous rocks, and plutonic (intrusive) igneous rock features (both concordant and discordant). Today we will focus on sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. We'll take down a cross section diagram of the geology here in south western British Columbia. We'll collectively define compaction, cementation, recrystallization, clastic sedimentary rock, and non clastic sedimentary rock. You will define contact, regional, and dynamic metamorphosism and you'll also have question 15 from page 366 in your Geosystems text for homework.
