Family Studies - now here are two classes for everyone!
Contents:
Family Studies 11
Family Studies 11 is geared to students who are considering careers in nurturing professions such as: social work, child care, teaching, and to those interested in psychology. Students will learn to understand themselves in relation to others, to recognize the interdependence of self, home and community environment. Students will learn about themselves by studying personality typology, intellectual development, and the self in social context, by preparing philosophy statements and assessments of personal health habits.
Assessment includes assignments, some tests and quizzes, and your participation!
Come and find out why we did this! ...
here we were building imaginary families ...The families had stories.
.. and yards!
In late November, we sponsored a White Ribbon Week.
And we did projects in the library.
  Then there are the masks we wear...     
Family Studies 12
Family Studies 12 is designed to follow the FS 11 course, but is a "stand - alone". A Grade 12 student may use this as a Grade 12 course. The course centres work and study on the “big picture” concept of family, seeing the learner as part of a family that has a past, present and a future. The family is multidimensional and in flux; however, globally the functions of families are similar. Content includes; relationships, courtship and marriage, family life cycles, parenting, and living independently.
Assessment includes a journal, a "baby project", assignments, one major test and a housing project.
