Short Tuesday


Social Justice

1. The quiz on Thursday will be out of 20, and will have multiple choice and short answer questions.
Upon review, we know that we should look over the following topics:

  • 7 types of human trafficking and their causes
  • unclean water
  • sexism/ feminism (to be covered tomorrow)
  • vocab
  • types of injusttice
  • definition of social justice
  • why social justice occurs 
  • origins of our rights (French Revolution, UN declaration, Canadian Charter/ Bill of Rights)
  • about 30 minutes in for review on F.R.
2. Tonight go to the Everydaysexism.com website and take note of two examples (there are pages and pages) where you were surprised, annoyed, or even disagreed with the true stories left by women.

3. HERE is the video I shared at the end of class today. It deals with sexism in advertising. Please have a look at it as it looks at ads over the decades. Note, that from 2:00 to 2:09 these are not ads but show different ways of dying, according to one person who left a comment. The video is 7 minutes in length and will begin tomorrow's discussion.

4. Your pre-read starts with the link below.

English

1. Tonight you will prepare three topic sentences for your imaginary essay's supportive paragraphs. These sentences will each need one example from the poem that supports that topic sentence. Try to construct sentences that you feel you would be able to write a whole supporting paragraph on.

2. Please complete your editing and proofreading exercise entitled "Contentment in the Garden" as we did not have enough time to complete all of our class work today. We will review this tomorrow.
