English 10 over Christmas Break

Short Story Project is due the first week back in January

(after January 7th will result in late deductions)

  • Remember if it is to be a properly detailed and in-depth analysis of your story it will be reflected in the detail and length of your project.
  • Many are doing PowerPoint report or a booklet report…you should submit your project digitally on Teams.
  • If you are doing a poster, you must bring it into class for submission.
  • Do not forget to make the project visually appealing with pictures that add dimension to your analysis (cite visuals properly!)
  • Make sure your project has a properly formatted citation list!

Mini Socials 10 over the Christmas break

Video link:  The Valour and the Horror: Savage Christmas

 

Please read through Chapters 6,7,8 and start taking notes.  The last three chapters deal with the post World War II era.

If you want to supplement the information by watching videos, there is an excellent video series available called Canada a People’s History:

Socials 9 over the Christmas break

The following are links to the three episodes that cover the last part of semester (Metis, Manitoba, BC and Canadian history up to the start of World War I).

As in class, please watch the episodes and write down the headings (number and/or underline the headings) and take a few summarizing notes for each segment presented.  The video notes will be due the first day back at school on January 4th.

Hint:  you may want to watch one episode a day the longest episode is about 1h 45 minutes.

*By watching these videos, it will give you a good grounding for Chapters 4,5,6 and 7 in Horizons.

*IF you have time over the break…I suggest you read these chapters or at least flip through them so you are familiar with what will be covered the last month of the course.
