Social 10, September 2009 - 2010

Introduction to Social 10, 2009 -2010

Welcome back. The hot, lazy days of summer are over. I hope your summer was fabulous and that you hung out with friends, enjoyed the creeks and rivers found here on the North Shore and slept until 9:00 a.m. every day!

This first week is always hectic but enjoy the start of a great school year. In Social 10 we study Canada's political, social and economic development since the 1800's. You will need your text and a binder. I will try to ease this start-up time by posting course information here and on my blog site. Below you will find what I expect we will cover this first week.
