Introductory Unit Assignment
For this unit, the applied students will be doing the same thesis paragraph assignment as the academic students.
The evaluation for this unit is a thesis paragraph in which students must argue whether Canada's history during the Twentieth Century was one of continuity or one of change. While one class period will be alloted for researching the relevant themes in the textbook, students will be expected to complete this assignment at home.
Major Assignments for Units 1-3
There are three assignments for the first three units: a paragraph analysis, a board game, and a monument. Students will be allowed to choose which assignment they do for each unit, but MUST complete one of each assignment type. There will be a signup sheet in the classroom, and students must choose which assignment they will do for which unit ahead of time.
December Exam
All grade 10 students write a common exam during the December Exam Period. The exam covers the first three units of the course - WWI, the 1920s, and the 1930s, with an emphasis on the 1920s and 1930s. The exam includes short answer questions, such as multiple choice questions, as well as an extended written response. Further details are posted below in the exam review documents.
