To start off today, we did a bit of grammar editing and I gave students quiet reading time to finish My Name is Seepeetza. After that, we discussed suicides resulting from Residential Schools and different forms of discipline.
We watched a couple videos on discipline - one about forms of punishment in the 1950's, and one clip on types of negative teaching practises in Japan.
After the break, students worked on a hand-out and a journal response on 'Crime and Punishment' in My Name is Seepeetza.
Reminders:
- Questions and Journal response: due tomorrow!
- Finish reading My Name is Seepeetza
