Soc 8: Feb 6 House of Commons videos and letter writing… to the PM!
- We began the class in the classroom with the projector and I showed the students several video clips of different parts of debates in the House of Commons. Seeing that what goes on there isn’t always calm and formal makes it surprising for some that things are accomplished in government, if that is how they act sometimes. But it was clear this is how rules and laws are changed to make lives better for Canadians.
- We returned to the class and students reviewed their topics to possibly discuss in their letter to the Prime Minister. This letter should be written out in rough draft by next class on Thursday.
