Today's schedule: D C B A
D block - Socials 11
Today, we'll finish up with the election presentations. So far, your presentations have been great and the debate has been heated! Nice work.
We will (hopefully) work on the beginning part of our WWI unit. I'll discuss the Laurier era, and will assign some homework. Please do questions 1 and 2 on page 9 and questions 3 and 4 on page 13 (in your textbook, Counterpoints). Check out this website for some further information on what Canada was like in 1900.
Some of you have asked about other homework I've assigned. If you get these in by Friday, I'll mark them; any later and no dice! I assigned questions 3 and 4 (a and b) on page 258 and also asked you to complete these lobbyist questions.
C block - Humanities 8
Today, after silent reading, we'll discuss our community rules and we'll talk about the "teams in the classroom" idea.
We'll go over what you looked up last night - what interesting current events did you find? In groups of 4 or 5, you will create a tableaux that represents your story (make sure one of you narrates so that we understand what you're trying to portray!).
Tomorrow, we'll do a current event. Please feel free to look for your own news to share!
A block - Law 12
After you hand in your Human Rights' posters, we'll get started on the criminal law unit. I'll have you fill out some worksheets so that I know what you're interested in. We'll discuss criminal vs. civil law, the Canadian Criminal Code, the definition of a crime, actus reus and mens rea and immoral vs. illegal behaviours.
Please answer the following questions (use Chapter 4 in your textbook as a reference):
1. Which level of government oversees criminal law and what is the main source of criminal law? What pros and cons can you think of for this?
2. Elements of a crime - what are the two conditions for an act to be a criminal offence? What are the three types of offences?
3. Describe a "wrongful deed" that does not involve intent or knowledge.
4. How is recklessness a factor in deciding if an action is criminal?
5. Should culture be a factor in deciding if an action is criminal? What about socio-economic status?
6. In what three ways can someone be a party to a crime?
You missed out on a Law and Order episode last Friday, so we'll make it up tomorrow!
