A Block Physical Geography - Today we'll begin the class by looking at Yellowstone and caldera supervolcanoes 😯
Yellowstone Caldera is a volcanic crater some 40- by 25-miles large, left behind when 240 cubic miles of debris ruptured out of the Earth and into the air during volcanic discharge some 630,000 years ago. Lava flowed into the breach, filling it, which may account for the lack of a deeper crater. Long before that, 2 million years ago, volcanic activity blew 600 cubic miles of Yellowstone debris into the air. The upper chamber, which caused the historic blasts and is closest to the surface, is 2,500 cubic miles in volume and measures about 19 by 55 miles. The lower reservoir, which has a volume of 11,200 cubic miles, measures about 30 by 44 miles and is about 16 miles thick. An eruption in the next few thousand years, however, is extremely unlikely, the yearly chance sits at 1 in 700,000

For the rest of the day, you may work on the Juan de Fuca Plate and Geothermal energy
questions...for the Juan de Fuca question use Focus Study 11.1 "Tectonic Setting of the Pacific Coast of Canada" in the Geosystems text Chapter 11 pages 358-360 and for the Geothermal energy question use both the videos below and Focus Study 11.2 "Heat from Earth - Geothermal Energy and Power" also in the Geosystems text Chapter 11 pages 363-365 . I'll show you some
information on geothermal energy plants and you'll get some time to work on the
assignment. For
help with the geothermal energy check out:

D Block Legal Studies - 
Today is your introductory unit final test in Law. The unit test will cover the first three chapters of the All About Law text (Foundations of Canadian Law, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and Human Rights in Canada). The test will have: 15 True/False questions; 15 Multiple Choice questions; 15 Matching questions; and 3 Short Answer questions. Since you had a few days to prepare I am certain that you will do extra well on this test. No lawyer works in isolation and today neither will you, you may not use notes, however, you may collaborate with colleagues on the test. You'll have as much time as you need for the test however it should only take 45-50 minutes to complete. When you're done we're back to the learning commons / library last day in the learning commons for our Human Rights poster. I have poster paper for your Human Rights project 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!
