Social 10
We finished watching "Talking to Americans" today in class. I also gave you a "Talking to Canadians" type quiz, the answers to which are posted in the comments section.
Find the Fib Update:
Here are the students that I have heard from regarding the Find the Fib game:

I would still like to play this game, so I need to hear from 3 more groups between Social 10-1 and Social 10-2. If you see that I haven't heard from someone in your group, please encourage them to submit their Find the Fib work!

is their enought information on the power points for studying or do we need to study other material as well
When are you going to send out the practice exams for Social 10?
veeeeerrrrrry tired. Why are you posting random stuff like that on here?
I remembered the guy who assassinated Robert F. Kennedy the period after social. I was lucky because I only had to remember one name ;).
what do we need to knoe about the cold war
I think only Canada's role like the Avro Arrow stuff and the NORAD and stuff
I'm going to answer some questions:
No, there's not enough information in the PowerPoint presentations, but they will be very helpful. Study the Cold War, I'm not going to say what you specifically need to know, just know the material in the PowerPoint and any other textbook questions I may have assigned. I have one practice exam for Social 10 now scanned into PDF format. I will try to send it out either tonight or tomorrow.
CT just sent his again. I will try to get AC to send it too just in case my emails dont get through. but Please check your email soon. Thanks. Is it possible for me to come in early tomorrow and give the questions to you then if they do not get through?

there are stuff from the blueprint that i cant find in the key terms or any of the concepts, i reamember takeing most of them put i can't find the acctuale notes
here are the key terms i can't find:
thrid parties
Quebce Seperatisem
demands for specail status
NEP
Norhtern Development
fistst minster's conferences
equalization polices
-thats all for now...but if anyone knows plz tell me where these concepts are?!
so no body knows??
Quebec Seperatism is found in the French-English relations powerpoint and anything with Meech Lake and Charlottetown Accords in it. Equalization policies were found in the booklet along with NEPs that focused on Western Alienation. Special Status was all through the rights and responsibilities unit. I cant think of the others
Have fun and Good luck
CT
We talked about first minister's conferences multiple times in class: When prime minister meets with premiers
Dunno about third parties though
CT THe other one was me too lol
Can you summarize the main events in the french revolution for me please?? I know roughly what they were i just want to make sure i didn't miss any and make sure they're in chronological order! thanks
what do you mean by symbols of nationalism?
Never mind I found my time line :P but i still don't know what you mean by symbols....
Please drop into tutorial to give me your Find the Fib statements, for some reason I'm not getting your e-mails.

I'll try to help. Third parties could refer to non-mainstream political parties or have to do with the arbitration/mediation process. Quebece separtism is in the French-English Relations PowerPoint. Also know about the Meech Lake Accord and Charlottetown Accord and the referendums in Quebec in 1980 and 1995. For "demands for special status" please see the Meech Lake Accord and Charlottetown Accord (there was a reason for those charts). NEP is in the textbook, it's the National Energy Program introduced by Trudeau. Equalization is in the Regional Disparties PowerPoint rpesentation. Know that a First Ministers' Conference is when a PM meets with all the provincial premiers.
Symbols of nationalism? Hmmm, with regard to what we studied in Social 20 that would refer to things like a national anthem, a flag and things like that. During the French Revolution you start to see the growth of these "symbols of nationalism" with the creation of the French national anthem and the adoption of the three colored French flag. Don't worry about this point too much.
ok ill come into tutorial and give Find The Fib to you
