English 30-2:

Children's stories look fantastic and we'll be sharing them with students at Nakasuk School on Friday, September 30.

Currently, both blocks are reading novels and responding in various ways.  Block A is reading Fallen Angels, while Block B is reading Generals Die in Bed.  Both are excellent war novels, exposing such themes as friendship, isolation, dehumanization, desperation, and man's reaction in the face of adversity. 

Socials 10-1:

On Monday, September 19, the class voted on which famous Canadian poster represented the most influential Canadian, and Mike Myers was selected.  Since then, students have been working through textbook information regarding history's influence on who Canadians are today.  The next textbook assignment is due on Friday, September 30.  In addition, they are now working on a demographics project which is due on Friday, September 30.  When time permits, we will be continuing our work on Canada's citizenship quiz preparation.

I am away on medical this week from Tuesday, September 27, until noon on Thursday, September 29.  If you need to reach me during that time, please don't hesitate to email.

Have a great week.
