Staying on top of things.

This blog is created as a way to stay on top of the learning throughout the year and as a way to discuss various topics that will arise as you learn. I hope that you find this blog useful as a way of checking in on what you have missed while you were away and double-checking on the information that we will cover in the class.

An important note: It is YOUR responsibility to catch up on missed work and assignments through this blog. Therefore, I will expect that you will be prepared and ready for all activities and the work assigned will be completed on time. It is really important to stay on top of your work so we can be motivated, responsible members of the class.

Also, feel free to offer up your comments on lessons, activities, etc. as you like. It is important that you can comfortably offer up any feedback that will help create memorable learning experiences. Your voice is important.


Success does not come before effort in the dictionary!

Following the discussion, we worked through a quick scenario ("No Fun Zone") and analyzed whether those situations were grounds for rebellion.

Due to lack of time, there is a lot of work to complete for next class:

 Reporting on the causes of the rebellion of 1837-1838 and 2 solutions. You will need to read pages 33 -43 (old textbook), p.65-76 (new textbook)
 report on rebellions of Upper and Lower Canada, 1837-38
