Social 10
I gave you a reading today on First Nations in Canada, from Early Contact to Residential Schools. You are to read this booklet and answer the "Reconnect" questions in the booklet for homework tonight. Whatever you didn't finish in class is for homework. We also split up into our Imperialism Research Project groups for the remainder of the period, we will continue to do this tomorrow.

For most of the class we watched a film called "Joyeux Noel (Merry Christmas)" a movie about the widespread Christmas truce that occurred along the Western Front in December 1914 (the first Christmas of the war).
