Ms. Lincke has collected all the links on her website, so check here for more specifics and resources: https://mrslincke.weebly.com/heritage-project.html This week, we are going to focus on brainstorming ideas and narrowing the endless possibilities. It can be overwhelming-- how to choose? You are restricted within the parameters of 1750-1919, and some connection to Canada. Start with what you find interesting. Flip though your socials course material, what did you enjoy? What stories were missing from what you learned? Bounce ideas of your peers, your teachers. Chat on TEAMS, or check some outside resources. The Heritage website gives a 9 page list of ideas: http://bcheritagefairs.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Project-Topics-and-Ideas.pdf CBC created an amazing documentary about Canada, here are the relevant episodes:

Our primary form of communication will be through email & this website; however, teams has a really nice web chat feature that I would like to be able to use if I can get everyone logged in easily.
To use Microsoft Teams, you will need to have access to your school email. Your school email is set up like this: First name initial + last name + last 4 digits of your student number @langleyschools.ca
Your password, unless you have changed it, should be the first two letters of your name + the first four digits of your student number + $$
As mentioned in the email, if you have a computer, I recommend downloading the Office 365 program, and if you are using a phone get the Teams app (or both...) Please respond to this blog, in the comments if you are able to get into Teams (or not.)
