Market Gallery
Field Trip
On Wednesday, January 22nd, Room 13 students went
to the Market Gallery to learn about government and debating. During an interactive slide show and a “true
or false” activity, we reviewed the three levels of government and learned
about their three branches; legislative, judicial and executive. In four groups we researched whether or not
Toronto should build an incinerator or buy a landfill site to deal with its
garbage problem. to prepare for the debate. After lunch, we had the debate and
voted just like city councilors do. In our class, we will continue to debate
different topics. We also enjoyed looking around the historic St Lawrence
Market at the amazing variety of foods. It was an awesome field trip!
