Social 10-2

You wrote your Unit 2 Final Exam at the beginning of class today, the results were good. You did a film study of "China Rises: Getting Rich" before the break as well. After the break, I returned your Unit 2 Written Responses Assignment II that you wrote in class yesterday. I gave you your Chapter 12 Reading Organizer as well today. Please see the upcoming important dates to stay on top of what's coming up in Social 10-2. At the end of class I gave you your Mid-Term Report Cards (I highlighted your mark on the mark print out sheet). Some of you are throwing away easy marks by not doing your homework. Homework checks count for 5% of your course mark, so do your homework.
