Dear Grade 8,

In this wiki, you will find information that will help you with our investigation of Theme 5: //Human Rights//. In our previous unit, you explored many different cultures, both your own and others around the world. In our final unit, we're going to investigate the concept of 'rights', through history, current events and our literature circles.

Our wiki represents or contains the following:
 * ideas
 * connections
 * outlines of everything we do
 * assessments
 * rubrics
 * a place to share and discuss our work
 * a place to post ideas, music, artwork, videos
 * a place to work collaboratively

And as always, we're continuing to save paper!

This is our textbook. It is always there and you cannot lose it. You can follow up the links at your leisure at home and review material or follow new links as part of improving your understanding of these concepts. Your blogs are linked here and there is a place to post work. Some pages are locked (such as the unit overviews and assessment) but some pages will be a work in progress, for us to create something collaboratively.

It's the last part of our journey through Grade 8 and I'm looking forward to sharing it with you.
