April 14

Humanities 8

Students read "The Viking Raid" during silent reading.  It starts on page 3 of the Pathways textbook. Next students answered questions 1, 2 and rewrote the story from Guthrum Bloodaxe's point of view in partners (or on their own if they prefer).

English 10

Students referred back to the first 2 chapters of the novel and summarized some of the difficulties Junior has in his life using the worksheet "Literary Log - Coping with Trauma," which should be kept in their duo tangs.  Next students were asked to define resilience and respond to the following statement in a dated entry in their duo tang:

Humans are resilient and figure our ways to cope with difficulty or trauma.
  • Do you agree?  Why or why not?  
  • Do you have a connection to this?
  • How do people cope with trauma?
Next students will read/listen to "Revenge Is My Middle Name" and "Because Geometry Is Not a Country Somewhere Near France." 

Under the same duo-tang entry, students should write a description of Rowdy.  Use a quote in your description.

First Nations 12

Students will go to the library to work on a webquest about smallpox.  This was handed in when completed.
