Week of February 23rd - 27th

English Language Arts:

This week, we continued working on the One Pager project for Refugee. Students used class time to finalize their planning and begin creating their good copies, ensuring their work clearly reflects their chosen character’s perspective and understanding of the novel.

Students will have part of a “catch-up” period on Monday to complete the assignment before it is due if needed. Many students who had fallen behind took this task home over the weekend in order to complete it.

Social Studies:

This week in Social Studies, students continued developing their comics based on the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. They focused on refining their scenarios, strengthening the connection to their chosen Fundamental Freedom or Democratic Right, and ensuring their written explanations clearly explain how the situation reflects a right being upheld or violated.

Students will have part of one catch-up work period on Monday, if needed; however, this time will be shared with the ELA catch-up period.

Tasks & Assignments:

-Charter of Rights and Freedom Comic (x2) : Due Thursday, February 26th

-Refugee One-Pager Final Pager: Due Monday, March 2nd
