Emergency Response to Badger Flood
On February 15, 2003, a terrible flood hit the town of Badger in central Newfoundland. The article on this Web page will give you an idea of how different levels and government, as well as citizens, join together to help deal with an emergency.
Discovering our Heritage: Education
Looking after the education system in a province is one of the provincial government's responsibilities. Education today is very different from what it was like in the past. At this Web site you can read interviews with teachers and students who remember what school was like "in the old days" in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Compare and Contrast and Role Play |
1. Go to Discovering our Heritage: Education. 2. Read the interviews to find out what school was like in Newfoundland in days gone by. 3. Create a chart to compare the information you read about school on the site, and your experience of school today. Click here to download a chart on which to collect your information. 4. What do you think school will be like 75 years in the future? Work with a partner to imagine a school of the future. Then role-play an interview with a student who has travelled back in time to tell you about school in the future. Prepare interview questions and answers and then present your interview to the class. |
