Period 1- Law 120- Students are looking at the Ashley Smith Case. Students have a background of the Case. Period 3- Reading tutor- Students are supposed to hand in their lesson plans. Please take lesson plans and exchange it with other students to see if they can read and implement the plan. If they cannot, it means that they did not explain it accurately. Tell students to complete them for Tuesday. Period 4- Theatre Arts- On Thursday we brainstormed ideas about writing a script. We sat around a large table and tried to come up with ideas. The goal this week is to try to get the script written. We looked at several themes and then broke into groups to write 4-5 ideas into a story line. Students are to spend the day writing because they will present their story line on Tuesday. The presentation should include characters and their objectives. Period 6- Economics 120- Students have just finished presenting their ideas about how to address the Miramichi Economic Crisis. Students will research online to find an example of a community in North America that was experiencing an economic crisis. Research and find articles that tell about how these communities solve the problem. Prepare a 1 page response to the article. Here are some points you may want to address: ·         Tell me about the community prior to their economic crisis. (What was it like, how many people lived there, quality of life.) ·         Identify the economic crisis variables- employment, business that closed etc. (in other words what caused it) ·         What was their plan to change things and how did that plan happen? ·         The result in the community after the economic plan. (use statistics to support you information) ·         Finally explain if those ideas could possibly work in Miramichi.
