Teddy Bear History
This is a brief history about the teddy bear. When Canadians give a gift it is often a teddy bear - by itself (very large) or included in a gift basket. One of my students asked why does everyone give a teddy bear and this is why. Enjoy Just more fun information about North America.

Never heard of divorce!
This was especially useful for newcomers to Canada - both young and old. Many do not know about divorce. It is an introduction to a much needed piece of information for them. Your timing needs to be sensitive when using this reading.

Things to discuss #30
This worksheet deals with dictionary use. Some of the students are actually afraid of this book. This eases them into the use of a dictionary. The page can be edited for other words. Have fun. My students couldn�t use the dictionary to decide their answer but beginners should be able to.
