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

D & B Blocks Social Studies 10 - We'll finish working together in the class on explaining and identifying the six physiographic regions of Canada. To help, we'll watch...



Today I'd like you to use all of the geographic work we've looked at, as well as the text, and try to answer the following:

"How has Geography shaped the culture of Canada?"

This is a big question and I really want you to try hard to think like a geographer here. Thinking like a geographer is thinking spatially in a systems manner. This involves looking for patterns, relationships and connections in order to comprehend large, complex self regulating systems. So what patterns, relationships and connections exist between people and places that help to shape Canada today? Use the organizer for question 1 at the end of Chapter 1 in the Horizons text for help.

C Block Law 12 - Well since we got caught up in a "I have this friend who" question session about Charter Section 8 (Unreasonable Search and Seizure) yesterday...today I'll have you work on the following questions:
  • page 54 q 1-3;
  • page 56 q 1, 2 and 4; and
  • page 60 question 1.
After this we'll work on our Human Rights poster (which is due next Wednesday - February 24th, 2016). I have poster paper for you and I'll give you the paper once I've seen your ideas (a rough sketch). Remember you need to create a visually appealing Human Rights Campaign Poster that addresses the human rights violation by incorporating key information (What is happening? Where is it taking place? What rights are being violated? Who is having their rights violated? Why are their rights being violated?) as well as pictures, symbols, and colours. Your poster should seek to draw the attention of the public through the balanced combination of text and visuals in a creative, yet educational manner!

A Block Introduction to Law 9/10 - This is it...the last day for research or compilation. We have the library booked in order to continue work on our serial killer research activity which is due next Wednesday in class. If you have completed the research for this assignment then you can print off your work and start to assemble your poster. Either way...this is it so use your time wisely
