702 - Today we discussed what Stereotypes are and then finished watch Disney's Pocahontas. While watching, students picked out obvious stereotypes that Aboriginal People had about Europeans and Europeans had about Aboriginal People during the time of Exploration. There is no homework.
701- Today we continued to work on our Perspective Poems. Students should have followed the following steps to complete their poem:
1. Decide if you are a European or First Nation between the years 1450-1550.
2. Write a journal entry / letter about your first encounters with the other group (include key words and phrases that show your perspective of them)
3. Highlight all key words and phrases
4. Re-write the highlighted words so that each highlighted word or phrase has its own line
5. Edit so that it has a logical order of ideas, key words or phrases that show a clear perspective, spelling, an appropriate title, and an appropriate picture.
This poem is due on WED. DEC. 3rd.
