CE/Social Studies
- We worked on getting our CE textbooks assigned.
- We looked at The Lord's Prayer and applied our parts of speech knowledge to identify parts of speech in the first line.
- I gave you some time to work on homework.
- We read the "What to do with the Tamils?" article and tried our hand at making inferences.
- We had group discussions about human smuggling and immigration. Some groups shared their answers. The other groups will share theirs at the start of our next Humanities class.

The "Online" section of the handout.
1) Vote in the monthly poll at www.news4youth.com
2) Find out what it takes to become a Canadian immigrant on cbc.ca's Becoming Canadian (www.cbc.ca/news/becomingcanadian/index.html) (Familiarize yourselves with this so that you can speak about it.)
