CHSS vs. my old school

We created a chart of information, comparing our experiences at Cariboo Hill, to our experiences at a school we'd previously attended.  We talked about how we would consider different features, or attributes, of the two schools.  Things like teachers, classes offered, cafeteria food, technology available could be considered.

Then, we created a compare/contrast paragraph outline, using either block style or point-by-point style.  We reviewed different transition words/phrases that could be used to link ideas.

Finally, we began writing a practice compare/contrast paragraph, comparing CHSS to our old school.  These paragraphs will be submitted next class and Ms. Barsky will provide feedback on them.
