Today's schedule is A-Ag-B-C-D
A & C Blocks Social Studies
10 - Today we'll finish up the grade 9 Social Studies review that we began in Friday's class. After, I will ask you to brainstorm two questions...What is a
rebellion and Why do rebellions happen? After a brief yet I'm quite certain
brilliant discussion I'd like you to define the following: Family Compact,
United Empire Loyalist, Clergy Reserves, Assembly, and Governor. I'll have you
work on the two questions on the "Get to the Source: The Family Compact" section
on page 53 of Horizons and we'll finish by looking at Clergy and Crown
Reserves in Upper Canada.

D Block Criminology 12 - Today your journal / blog entry is to post your response to Friday's
question:
What are the short and long term impacts on victims of Crime?
Use Harper in the Law & Order episode you watched on Friday and Chapter 3
pages 54-7 in CRIM textbook to help.
Next, I'd like you to find an
article (news story) about a victim of crime and for that you should outline the
impacts of the crime on them. Finally, using the two stories (one fictional and
one real) explain what we should do to mitigate (soften the impact) the impacts
of crime on victims (be realistic). Don't forget to find stories on crime in
Canada check out: CANOE
CNews Crime site...or the Toronto Star Crime site...or
Global News Crime site...or the Huffington Post Canada
Crime site...or the Vancouver
Sun Crime Blog
Nestled away, in the back corner of G.P. Vanier, you'll find room 115 (we used to be 611). Lurking in the shadows of this room is Mr. Young...waiting to pounce on unsuspecting students and natter on about volcanoes, hail, psychopathy, criminal law defenses, cultural diffusion, media theories, crime, and urban models of city development. He loves his job in 115 and can't wait to work with you this year.
