Today's schedule is A-Ag-B-C-D
A & C Blocks 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 ConquĂȘte" 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.
In case you forgot,
here are some websites to help refresh your memory:

D Block Criminology 12 - Today we'll watch the Law & Order: Special Victim's Unit episode "Closure"
This episode deals with the short and long-term effects of a sexual assault on a
victim.
From TV.com "Benson does her best to help a rape victim who is
able to describe her attack in perfect detail, yet unable to properly identify
her attacker when push comes to shove. When the detectives revisit the case a
few months later, they find the woman even less willing to talk about what
happened, as she claims she has moved on."
I want you to think hard
during this episode and pay careful attention to what happens with Harper's
character. What are the short and long term impacts on victims of Crime? Use
Harper in the Law & Order episode you watched today and Chapter 3 pages 51-4
in CRIM textbook to help. This will form
the basis of your blog entry on Monday.
