Monday's Assignment:


Good morning everyone,

We will start this week by talking about Canada’s history. Click on this link, read and answer the questions on the seven short articles there. Then, write a short summary for each one using all the new vocabulary you have learned from each passage; make sure do not to exceed one paragraph each for a quick presentation in class.
