Period 1--ELA B 30
We watched the video clip from GASP at the request of the principal and division informing kids about the dangers of "The Choking Game." This issue has been brought to the forefront because of a number of reports around OES and OHS of kids playing this game as well as the tragic death of a 13 year old boy is Saskatoon this past October. It was a very factual video but compelling.
After this, I introduced the Prologue Assignment and provided a number of exemplars for the students to model and/or use as inspiration. They will have Monday's class to work on this.
Period 2--ELA B 30/AP 30
As above, the grade 12s were requested to watch the GASP video.
We then finished the last little bit of the Prologue and then the students were introduced to the Prologue Assignment and also shown the various exemplars.
Period 3--Pre-AP 10
We all attended the Remembrance Day Service that was created by the History 20 class. It was a beautiful service and hopfully inspires the students to spend some time tomorrow remembering those who gave their lives for freedom.
Period 4--History 10
The students wrote their American Revolution exam today. Once they finished, they were allowed to work on their timeline.
Period 5--History 30
We continued with the War of 1812. Again, I really enjoy this class and their interest in the content. At 3:05, they were all called to their homerooms to collect their report cards!
While tomorrow, as Remembrance Day, isn't really a "holiday" in a celebratory sense of the word, I do hope everyone has a restful long weekend.
