Today's schedule is A-AG-B-C-D
B Block Social Studies 11 - Today with Ms. Tancon you will look at the four underlying causes of World War One -
Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, Nationalism (MAIN). You'll focus on imperialism (competing
Empires on a global scale) and militarism, highlighted by the British naval
escalation (HMS Dreadnought) and the massive arms development in Germany. After
this you'll review the system of alliances (Triple Alliance / Triple Entente) and
nationalism (Serbian "Black Hand" and Austria-Hungary control over the Balkans). To end, you'll look at the spark, Gavrillo Princip and the assassination of
Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sofia.
C Block Geography 12 - Today we'll start by finishing the Tsunami video we started Friday in class:
America's Tsunami Are We Next? Don't forget not only the question in your week 4 package but the following as well:
Why can tsunamis cause such damage and devastation? What are some
characteristics of the wave that factor into how much damage it could cause? How
do coastal or shoreline features factor into the extent of damage? What role
could a warning system play? How effective would a warning system be for the
west coast of Vancouver Island? Why?
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.
