Socials 10: Friday Feb. 23 including Historical Wrongs project outline

 -we did our Friday 5, see Q and A's on previous post

-Finished up collages  (minimum 5 words or pictures that you think represent Canadian identity.  Short write up stating why you chose what you did)

-we did a review sheet on nation/country/civic nation/ethnic nation etc... 

-Worked on historical wrongs, what are they, examples

Then we did some work to prep for our projects on Ethical Dimensions and Historical Wrongs:
P. 16 & 17 in text
What are ethical dimensions or judgements?
Right/Wrong actions, who judges?
Were past actions right/ethical 
Judging whether past actions were justified, assigning historical responsibility, and attributing contemporary accountability.

Historical Wrongs
-what are they
-read pp. 42 - discuss and be ready to respond to Q 1 and 2 at bottom of page
-read p. 47 (including the voices), should Canadians talk about the victories of the past?  What about the blemishes of our past?  Why or why not.  
-How can these events contribute to Canadian identity?

Introduction of project and time in library to work on research notes.

Historical Wrongs Project:

-further research either the residential school apology or another government apology in Canadian history & create a short visual display including bibliography  (examples:  Ukrainian/Japanese/Italian internment, Komagata Maru, Chinese Head tax, Residential Schools, the St. Lewis)
1.  Notes  - create a solid set of written notes on your topic of choice, think 5W+H
2.  Visual display to communicate learning. (poster, power point, sway, photo collage etc...)
3.  Bibliography in Chicago style

-ensure you provide background info from both perspectives of the issue (for example:  Why the Canadian Govmt created Residential Schools and how Indigenous people felt about these schools --at the time).
-give time frame of initial issue, (ex. when Residential Schools started/ended)
-when the government apologized & why they apologized including what provoked the apology (ie, what was the catalyst).  Did the apology include a monetary piece?
