Hi class, nice to see you all again 🙂
Today we played a kahoot game to review the information we have learned so far in chapter 5. We also began working on the concept map of the Northwest Rebellion with a partner. For the remainder of our classes together, we will be performing a mock trial of Louis Riel; all of you were present in class today so you all received a role to research on. We will be doing in the library next class; please bring materials to work on and you can also bring in your own laptop.
Homework:
Today, we spent the class finishing up the CPR posters and I also handed back some assignments. There is no homework over the break, but if you have not handed in your posters, please make sure you get it to me on the first day back!!
Have a wonderful spring break, everyone!
Hi class, today we did our vocab quiz C and had the remainder of class to work on our CPR posters.
As discussed in class, for those of you who have the posters finished by Friday, I will collect yours during class.
For those of you who decide to hand it in after spring break, it is due on the FIRST DAY BACK (Wednesday March 30th). Since you will have had an extra 3 weeks to work on the poster, my standards for you will be higher.
Hello everyone! For those of you who were not here today, we wrote movie reviews for We Were Children and talked about the CPR poster project. The project guidelines are attached below. I will give you class time on Wednesday and Friday to work on the poster, so please bring pencil crayons and your textbooks to class! The poster is due on FRIDAY. If you will not be here on Friday, you need to hand it in to me BEFORE spring break.
