C Block Geography 12 - Because of the power outage yesterday we didn't get to some things so today I'll show you some footage of the Kilauea eruption (both pahoehoe and aa flows) and the Soufriere Hills volcanic eruption on Montserrat. We'll then look at the differences between explosive and effusive volcanic eruptions (think silica and gas) and you'll have a big question to look at. Tomorrow we will focus on Mount Saint Helens, Wednesday we'll look at our case study and focus on Mount Rainier and then Thursday and Friday we're in the library working on our first project.
For more on the differences between explosive and effusive eruptions see:

Volcano World "Volcanic Gasses"
Science World 2005 "When Mountains Fizz"
A Block Social Studies 11 - Today with Ms. Krahn...Today we will spend the class looking at four key battles of WWI, and the effects each had on the Canadian Expeditionary Forces. We’ll make a chart that compares each battle, and I will ask you to take note of where the battles occurred on a map of the Western Front (Counterpoints, p. 28) and how they affected the front line. I will also ask you to compare a plus/minus of the battles as well (example: territory gained vs. lives lost). After this, we’ll watch a clip from Canada A People’s History.
The four battles include:
The Second battle of Ypres (1915)

B Block Law 12 - Yesterday's class took the entire block for the test (which you'll get back today and which you generally did well on as a class) so today we'll get to the first part of our criminal law unit...
- Come up with three "Criminal Law" questions you want answered for the "Free Question Day" (remember to write your questions about crimes, criminals, and punishment on a piece of paper and place them in the question box).
- Brainstorm a list of all the crimes you can think of in the following categories: Violent Crime; Property Crime; High Impact Social Order Crime
Next we'll go through your brainstormed list of crimes and categorize them. After that we're going to look at the types of criminal offenses (summary conviction, indictable, hybrid) and the elements of a crime (with special attention focused on the Mens Rea - intent, knowledge, and recklessness).
