Ms. Tyre's English 11 Homework for Monday, April 7:

1. Read both handouts: "West Coast Navvies" and the more developed, multi- page "Chinese Canadians."  

1) Take good notes 

2) look up words you do not understand 

3) know terms and their meanings, ie. Gold Mountain - and others 

4) condense the extended article into the important points that show the progression of the history of the Chinese in Vancouver (and other Asian groups mentioned.)

You will be writing a multi-paragraph response for The Jade Peony:Part One and your understanding of the history will help you.
