Social 10

Today I tried to get Social 10-3 caught up with Social 10-1. I gave you the same handout that I gave to Social 10-1 the other day. Social 10-3 students: you need to read the booklet on the FTA and Canada's role in peacekeeping, and answer the questions in the booklet, this get you completely caught up. I also handed out the following to both classes: a handout on analyzing political cartoons, and a booklet to help you with some TestWise multiple choice test-taking strategies. With 10-3, we didn't quite finish with the booklet, so please go over it this weekend. Please don't forget that you should be preparing for your Identity unit final, which is on Tuesday. The study guide for the unit final was posted yesterday.

Here is that hyperlink to the Professional Editorial Cartoonists' Index . It's such a huge site that it might be hard to find the index of Canadian editorial cartoonists, it's located here. Have fun exploring!

Social 23

Today I had you read pages 118-120 in the textbook, and to answer questions #1-4 on page 120. This dealt with the breakup of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire (Turkey). Please make sure that you study for your quiz on Monday, which will cover "Nationalism in Europe". Here is the study guide:
