December 15


I gave you back your Unit 3 Part A In-Class Writing Assignments at the beginning of class. If you missed class today, you need to get some notes that I wrote up on the board, the notes covered the topics of the Canadian Bill of Rights, Charter of Rights and Freedoms, civil rights, entrenchment of rights, human rights, inalienable rights and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. I then gave you a summary of the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights in plain language, and had you work on a chart activity for the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. If you didn't finish this chart in class, it is for homework. To complete the chart you will need to access the online version of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Please remember that you have your Chapter 15-16 Quiz on Thursday, click here to see the study guide.


I gave you back your position papers today, and went over some requirements that must be in your position paper (a "Recipe for Success" in writing in-class position papers). I also gave you the Unit 4 Worksheet today, I gave you a little bit of time to work on your Chapter 13 Key Terms and Questions. Please check your e-mail tonight, I have sent you some documents. Also, don't forget that you have your Unit 3 Final Exam on Wednesday, it's 70 multiple choice questions (lots of source-based questions), so you've got to know the material and be able to apply it. Here is the link to the study guide.
