Social 10-1

I returned your Unit 3 Position Papers at the beginning of class, and then went over some areas of improvement. You will get the results of your Chapter 15-16 Quiz after the Winter Break. I showed you a video on rising food prices from the CBC News in Review series. I then showed you some pictures from a book called Hungry Planet in which a photographer traveled around the world taking photos of families with an entire week's worth of groceries in front of them. I then showed you a music video called "Do They Know It's Christmas?" Here are some important upcoming dates for Social 10-1 students.
