Exams are over and returned to students, and the joys of learning keep multiplying. This week in:
Socials 30/33:
Beginning Module 5, which is an examination of post WWI conditions, interactions between nations, and ultimately, the causes of WWII. On Friday, November 12, we will be visited by Beverly Young, who works for Ottawa's Foreign Affairs Department, with a particular focus on Arctic Issues. Students will have an opportunity to gain knowledge about Canada's foreign policies and priorities.
English 30-2:
Students will focus on writing persuasive text this week, as we write (not send) letters to the IDEA in an attempt to convince them to either adopt school uniforms at IHS or to maintain the status quo. Next week we'll begin studying the play, "Farewel", by Ian Ross.
Socials 10-1:
Students are working on "Staking the Claim", a unit that studies the conditions which led to the signing of the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement. On Wednesday, we'll be writing veterans in appreciation of their contributions to our nation.
