Week 4/5- Timeline & Essay5/3/2020 This week you are going to start preparing for your essay. You will need to submit a rough timeline & an essay outline. 1. Timeline You should have been building a timeline since February. It should demonstrate categories for different perspective (French, immigration, indigenous.) It should demonstrate an assessment of whether or not it moves Canada towards multiculturalism or away from it. It doesn't need details other than the event title. There is no set format. However, here is an example: Items closer to the top are the most multicultural, items closer to the bottom are least multicultural-- it progresses chronologically and is colour coded. It doesn't need to be fancy, or typed-- I just want you to have considered most of the events we have covered. It will not be individually assessed, but it will contribute to your ability to orgranize evidence along with your essay outline. 2. Outline You will be answering the question: Does Canada deserve to be called a multicultural nation? You must include examples for three perspectives. I have attached a few outline examples, you can type it, hand write it, create your own format... but it must include: Hook/ Introduction Thesis 3 Topic sentences for 3 points, 3 examples (per point!) Conclusion
I will give you detailed feedback on your essay outlines before you are asked to write and submit your good copy. There will not be a "new" blog next week, as you will simply complete and submit your essay by May 17th. This is the last socials assignment-- time after this is focused on the Echo project. |
