  2. Co-construct criteria for a good motivational speech: Any Given Sunday, I have a Dream - other sample speeches.



Monday

  1. I collected the blue research page about your Canadian region. I also collected the map of Canada’s regions. If your work was not ready for class today, report to room 100 this week. It is expected that you will check in there 2 times: once to do the research; once to do the map. 
  2. Work on completing the storyboard for your memoir.
  3. Work on the handout about Canadian regions based on the textbook. You may do this work in point form; however, it must be neatly done and detailed. Remember that these notes, as always, can be used on the final test about geography. You should complete the sections about pages 161-163 in class today.
