One more day to go!

Good Evening Parents!

UOI: Today the students learned about the Physical Regions of Canada. We learned that there are 7 regions and that more than one province and/or territory makes up a physical regions. We focussed on The Cordillera and the Interior Plains today. Students broke into 2 different groups and were instructed to become "experts" on the region that they were given. They were to use the information package that I gave them as well as their own research. Tomorrow they will present their findings to each other.

We would also like to  fill our UOI board with post cards from different provinces and territories in Canada. Students are encouraged to ask friends and/or family that live in another province or territory to send them a post card to add to our UOI board. We would love to add some to our board!

Provinces and Territory Quiz on Monday Sept. 26! Please use the websites below to study for the quiz. Students will be required to fill out a map of Canada with the provinces, territories and capital cities. Students will also be required to name the oceans and Great Lakes. We will be learning the rest of these topics this week. I have also sent home a quiz review sheet so the students can start studying at home. Please return the green folders everyday.
