May 22


You finished watching the "9/11: The Day Changed the World" documentary today. It is strongly recommended that you read, highlight and annotate ALL of the notes in your Social 30-1 study booklet on the USA PATRIOT Act. We'll talk about the Patriot Act next week, along with the new Anti-Terrorism Act (2015) in Canada. Please remember that you are writing your Unit 3 WRA I three source analysis assignments on Tuesday, May 26th. If you are in Social 30-2 you'll be writing an Assignment I and an Assignment III.


You were supposed to work in small groups to build an appropriate first paragraph for your essay on Monday. I've seen what was produced, and to be honest, I'm a little disappointed. What was sent to me was not sufficient. Please see the wiki, specifically the WRA II Essay Writing page. I've posted what the Unit 3 WRA II Essay outline should look like, as well as a sample essay with comments. It is strongly recommend that you look at both of these documents. You're writing your Unit 3 WRA II Essay on Monday. Use this weekend to properly prepare. It's really obvious when you don't.
Your Chapter 11 Key Terms and Questions are due on Tuesday.
