Social Studies 7

IMPORTANT NOTE !!!!: All students should have a binder and an exercise book for social studies class (and don't forget to bring it to class with your pencils). Students should also have a large binder at home. The larger binder at home is for students to transfer the finished chapter materials (only whne the chapter has been completed) into so they can have all the years materials in one binder at home at the end of the year. This will help with preparing for the final exam they will have in June.

Students should read the section on page 6 of the text book entitled "The Canadian Charter of Rights and freedoms" for tomorrows class.

Students were all given a Poster Project to complete by October 21. If you were absent please see Mr. White to get a copy.

Those who did not complete their homework are to have it finished for tomorrow's class (see October 14 for details). Those who have not passed in their Poster Project are to finish it and pass it in during tomorrow's class, you will lose marks if it is not in tomorrow. And you should start reviewing for your test on Monday, October 25.

Our class has just finished chapter 1 and all tests are returned. Students should now bring home all material from chapter 1 and place in a larger binder at home. This will keep your notes organized for the final exam at the end of the year.
