Grade 7

Students will be bringing Chapter 4 tests home. Please review the test, sign it and return it to school. We are working on Chapter 5 which focuses on how the Loyalists helped to develop North America. The students will be doing 2 things during this time. First they will have this week to complete the project on the Loyalists (who are they? and what part did they play in Canadian history?); as well as, an individual workbook about Chapter 5. It consists of fill-in-the-blanks, short answers, and matching questions that can be answered using the text book. Both items will make up the student's Chapter 5 mark and are to be completed by Thursday, November 14.

It consists of fill-in-the-blanks, short answers, and matching questions that can be answered using the text book.
