Block C (1-3) English 11
We worked on glossing the King Jr. speech for rhetorical appeals and literary devices.
We went to the library computer lab and watched a video of Martin Luther King Jr. giving the "I Have a Dream" speech, noting the audience reactions. We then watched the Severn Suzuki speech to the UN Earth Summit.
FOR NEXT CLASS: Complete the gloss of King Jr.'s speech and Obama's speech. Write a personal response in a short paragraph to Severn Suzuki's speech. If you were an adult delegate in that audience, how convincing would you find her?

We put together the Louis Riel textbooks today. Using the "Setting the Scene" chapter and your Horizons textbook, create a detailed timeline for Riel's life up until his return to Canada (Batoche). Once that is done, choose 10 major illustratable events and plan for creating a 10-panel storyboard entitled "Riel: the Early Years".
FOR NEXT CLASS: Have your timeline completed. You will have the class to work on the storyboards. Bring markers, pencil crayons, and any other materials that you think you'll need as the storyboard will be due at the end of class.

Ms Keng, do you know if the "Macintosh HD" on a Mac is the same as "My Computer" on a PC??
Just so you know, it's Alan from Block B.
Alan,
I think that's right. The HD stands for Hard Drive so that's usually what you're accessing on a PC when you go "My Computer"
OK, Thanks!
