Bl. A - English 10: Students are developing their projects for the novel ATDPTI. Some very good work to date. Students are expected to be done and handed in by the end of the day, Wednesday, May 13th.
Bl. B - First Nations 12: We began our study of the Residential School System by viewing the first part of We Were Children. This film is expertly done and hard hitting, while keeping true to history. We will finish it tomorrow and have a class discussion about it. We will follow this by listening to a three part presentation from Angela White, from the Reservation schools survivors society. This is powerful and informative. Students will follow this and fill in a graphic organizer as well as write a summary of the majorlegislation related to residential Schools.
Bl C - Humanities 8: Students read their novels and were graded on their focus. Afterward, Students drew along with a you tube presenter on the basics of the feudal system under Charlemange, and answered some questions in their booklet using their textbooks. We also read part of the general prologue to Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, just to get a feel for what middle English actually sounds like.
