Today we worked making comics of the creation of the CP Rail in Canadian history.  Students have been studying this phase in history over the past few weeks.  Today they are going to http://www.bitstripsforschools.com/ to make comics that share a certain perspective of the construction of the CP Rail.  Students must log in to the website to get the outline of the assignment.  They are reminded to review the rubric below for how they will be assessed on this assignment.

Note: students must share direct facts related to the construction of the CP Rail in order to receive full credit on this assignment.  Comics that do not share direct facts will not be accepted.
