Assignment #7






This is my response to assignment #7....

4.a) Which category of Canadian Personalities interested you the most? Did you like the "we inspired", "we founded", "we fought", "we built" or "we governed" section the best? Why?
I liked the section "we built" because it had Samuel de Champlain, and last year i had to do a project about him. I also liked "we built" the best because they put influential people that shaped Canada's landscape.

b.) Which personality interested you the most? Why?
Samuel de Champlain interested me the most because he ventured by canoe in the wilderness. As he was in the wilderness he met aboriginal people and he negotiated with them. With the aboriginals he was helping them in the war and as well he traded furs.

c.)In your post, suggest three more influential Canadian personalities that could be added to this site. Why did you choose these people? Which categories would they fit into?
The three people I think would be a great influential Canadian are Rosemary Brown, Richard Preston and Terry Fox. I choose these influential people because they all can be great influential people because they all did something in their life to save people. I think that Terry Fox would fit into the category "we fought". Rosemary Brown would fit in to the category "we governed". I think Richard Preston would fit into the category "we built".

7.d) Which History-Maker did you have the most in common with? Were you able to figure it out from the clues given? What do you share with that person? What are some things that are different between you and that person? The two people I have in common with are Harriet Tubman and Thomas Longboat . The person I had the most in common with is Harriet Tubman. Yes I was able to figure it out from the clues given . Some things I don’t have in common with Harriet Tubman are that she helped escape from slavery and I didn’t . She doesn’t have any record of her birth because she was a slave and I do have a record of my birth because I wasn’t a slave . We are both similar we both are girls, we both love to sing, and we are both not from Canada.

8.e) One hundred years from now, (in 2109!) imagine that students are learning about Canadian History Makers and they discover you. What will you be remembered for? How were you a Canadian History Maker? You are using your imagination, so think about some things that you would like to accomplish in your life and imagine that you have all the accomplishments of your life to look back on. Write a short profile of yourself, imagining the contributions you have made to the future of Canada. (Write this as though you've lived your whole life. You may have been a phenomenal athlete, the first black Prime Minister, cured cancer...use your imagination!) In a hundred years from now which is in 2109, Mariam Meshal was known as a famous artist, that made the best piece in 2108 (99 years from now!) Mariam never was famous, but when she started to draw, people would say "Why don't you be an artist?" She thought that she isn't good enough. After awhile she put her drawings on the Internet and became famous. Mariam was shocked, but she started drawing and she became the most best artist in the world. No one ever had seen such amazing, and emotional pieces of art. One of her best pieces was the last one she made because she was drawing it while she was dying. She made her last piece about every feeling she would get when she was drawing this piece. It was a sad, happy, suprised, shocked,(etc.) piece. Well thats pretty much everything about her.
I hoped you liked my assignment #7, and keep intouch because their might be more assignments coming up. Thank you.
