1. I handed back the student exams from Units 1,2,3 and 4 today. I encouraged students to begin studying for their History 30 final and told them they could use their exams as partial study guides.
2. We continued with our discussion of Canada’s role in the International stage in the later part of the Twentieth Century. I mentioned to them, also, that Russia’s President, Vladimir Putin, has recently threatened America. America would like to build a missile radar station (part of missile defence) in Europe to ensure they are prepared if Iran or Iraq attack with nulear capabilities. Putin said if the Americans build the station hewould aim their Russian missiles at it in anticipation. Remind you of the Cold War??
