Lesson 29/30

Students have completed their in-class paragraphs  - NO HOMEWORK!

 

 

Lesson 28

 Students had the block to work on their outlines (or begin final paragraph work) - many students received their Analysis assessments - all but 5 who did not were given preliminary feedback on their writing (to ensure that they are able to incorporate it into their paragraphs).

Lesson 27

Students handed in their Power/Privilege reflections today, and continued their drafting work. 

They will complete their literary paragraphs by the end of class on Friday. 

NOTE: Students with unexcused absences will not be given additional time to complete the work.

Lesson 26

 We are spending the entirety of this week working through the drafting process of the in-class paragraph on King's work.

THEY ARE DUE AT THE END OF BLOCK 6 ON FRIDAY

Homework: Type up the answers to your reflection work for the Power/Priviledge activity, ensure your flower is labelled and coloured, and assess your reflection on the rubric provided. This is due at the beginning of tomorrow's class.

Lesson 24-25

Students are working on the outlines for their literary paragraphs.

Students are welcome to tutorials any day but Wednesday - we will  begin writing on Tuesday/Wednesday next week, and the work will be finished before the break.

Students who are absent for any reason other than illness will be expected to have their work complete by the end of next week, regardless of classes missed.

A reminder that Power/Privilege reflections and flower sheets - with typed answers AND a rubric are due on Tuesday, March 12th.

Lesson 23

We talked about the connections between the individual work we've been doing around privilege, and First Peoples Principles of Learning 

Students received the rubric for their work on privilege, and have until Tuesday, March 12th, to type up their answers (in MLA format, in their own voices). The answers will be submitted with a coloured-in flower, and a rubric.

We began the work of planning a literary paragraph. We looked at the basic structure, and students asked questions about length etc.

NO WORK  on these - planning or otherwise - WILL BE DONE AT HOME.

Tomorrow, students will begin planning their paragraphs in earnest - They will write them next week.

Lesson 20/21/22

 

Yesterday, we did the bead exercise - students who missed this class will need to connect during tutorial time, and  ensure they catch up on the reflection work.

Today, students debriefed yesterday's work, THEN students worked through the "Power Flower" activity together (anyone who missed needs to come to tutorial).

HMWRK - Students can take notes on their reflection questions (which will ultimately be typed and  put together with a rubric to be handed in next week) and should finish labelling and colouring today's work.

Tomorrow, we'll set about discussing the connections between these ideas and reconciliation - and consider what they mean in relation to the First Peoples' Principles of Learning
