Current Events by Jon and Neil. Topics: Alligators and Oman??
We finished our E.Q. (Equality) Quiz.
It's important to keep in mind the five social groups identified by the Canadian government to be a 'high risk' to live in poverty in our society. We will certainly circle back to these as we go deeper into the YPI project.
Diamond Ranking Activity: In pairs/trios, you tried to identify and rank nine social issues that affect our school and community. Interestingly, it appeared that the top three included: drug abuse, unemployment, and alcoholism.
Start thinking about:
(i) who you will work well with for the YPI project (in groups of 2-4)
(ii) which social issue you would like to learn (more) about.
I hope that everyone will have their groups and charities chosen by Friday!
