The students were to bring their Chapter 3 test home for review and signing. Chapter 4 focuses on the first years of Confederation.  Students completed a quiz on the views of both "les Métis et les colons (country-born)".  As well, they completed an open book assignment where they were to indicate what year various provinces entered Confederation.
