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!

G & A - Integrated Studies 8 > Background work on Native groups to Canada

Activity - Research Native groups of Canada

You will be put into a group

a. The class is divided into groups (TOC will read them out). Each of your groups will be assigned a region (see list below) found on the following map. http://firstpeoplesofcanada.com/index.html

Northwest Coastal people
Plateau people
Plains people
Eastern Woodland Hunters
Eastern Woodland Farmers
Subarctic People
Inuit

2)Your  group will create a google doc. Each person must have editting access and must also be shared with Ms. Googs at (msguglielmini@gmail.com).

    Activity: Each member of the groups will choose one different  aboriginal group from the region you were given.  Use 2 of these websites to find the list of information below:    
    Canadian Encyclopedia - Indigenous people in Canada 

  Each group member will contribute this information about their group onto the Google Doc. Put your name next to the group: 
 - Name
-  location
- 3 cultural characteristics (way of life). 
- Provide 2 sources where you found your information (on a  piece of paper) .  

- Think of the answer to this question that will be looked at next class:  How do Natives interact with their Environment.
