Feb. 23 – Mar. 6: Library features and Reel Canada at Haig

Ms. Lue brings back the Reel Canada Film Fest to Gr. 10 and 11 students on Tues. Mar. 3, Period 4 and 5. This year, students will be viewing two films, The Trotsky, directed by Jacob Tierney, among them. Check out some other great sites celebrating Canadian film such as TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival), the National Film Board of Canada (NFB – download to app to watch great Canadian films!), and our e-book resource through the Gale Virtual Reference (log in first then click the link here): the Schirmer Encyclopedia of Film. Over the next couple of weeks, the library works with Gr. 11 Social Science students on their summative looking at contentious issues by creating Annotated Reference Lists and using such databases Opposing Viewpoints and Canadian Points of View. Use the passwords on p23 of your agenda and see our list of databases to access these informative sites. ► Plan ahead knowing there will be limited access (e.g., fewer computers to use). Please respect the classes that are in session and remain quiet. The Library may be closed during the following periods (this is subject to change: always check the whiteboard near the entrance):
