Monday, April 6th -- Day Four

Period One -- ELA 10
After some silent reading, assignments based on the short story "Stains" (read Friday) was collected.
Seeing as book reports are due tomorrow and speeches are coming up soon, a work period was given to work towards these assignments. BOOK REPORTS DUE TOMORROW!!!

Period Two -- Social Studies 30
After some Current Events, we continued our look at the political system. We then started to take a look at the events leading up to the establishment of Canada as a country. A forewarning that an extensive assignment is in the works.

Period Five -- Social Studies 10
A real good effort in Current Events, easily ten newsworthy items brought up.
An assignment was given to the students based on articles in this mornings Leader - Post which is due tomorrow.
Students were then given a written scenario that they were to read and respond to. Some time will be given tomorrow to work on this but not much.

Period Six -- ELA 9
Activities and questions were collected from Act IV.
We orally read the Act V, Scene's I & II.

Period Seven -- ELA 20
The second to last period given to work on speeches. Give some thought to the potential for creating a documentary. I think it could be an interesting assignment to undertake.

Have a good night, Mr. Morin
