SS10 Notes: Nov. 26, 2015

So many rebellions! Louis Riel is probably the coolest character in Canadian history. Let's make a movie about him. Here are the details for Project #11:

Your project this week is to create a video of a news report as groups of two or three. Imagine everyone in Canada had televisions at the time. Create a news report, updating Canada on what happened with the Northwest Uprising. In this report you'll describe:
 
1. The recent uprisings in the Northwest - who, what, when, where, why? (6 points for accurate details)
2. How these uprisings compared to the Riel Rebellion of 1870 - how are they similar and how are they different? (3 points for how they're similar, and 3 points for how they're different)
3. What happened in the trial, and whether you believe Riel is a traitor or not. (3 points for description of the trial, and 3 points for your opinion)
 
An additional 6 points is awarded for the video. 3 points for clarity of visual and audio, and 3 points for using the news segment format. Here's a super old version of Canadian news:
