New Unit Journal and Matching Activity

New Unit, Terminology Matching Game, Journal and Diversity Banner

Today we are starting out next unit on POVERTY.  We will be investigating concepts of the working poor, financial poverty vs poverty of opportunity, the politics of poverty and the overall impact of poverty on the individual and society as a whole.   We will be focusing on local and Canadian poverty and then investigate the global context. 


By the end of this unit, you will have a better understanding of poverty and social inequalities. In addition, you will have further developed your critical thinking and research skills

Today we will:

• Write today's journal.
• Do a matching game to learn about some of the terms we will be investigating this unit.
• Continue working on our diversity banner.  Remember, everyone must work on this banner, especially if you weren't here.
