1st Lesson...
"Hello students! I'm Headmistress Johnson & I'll be teaching you Canadian Geography!" the headmistress called out to her class as she began with the 1st lesson.
"Ok, the first thing we will be learning about are the Provinces and Territories! In Canada there are 10 Provinces; British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador. There are also 3 Territories; Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories & Nunavut!" She continued at she pointed to each province and territory on a large map attached to the wall:
"Does anyone have any questions?" she then asked her class. She was trying to make sure that they understood this concept before she went on with any further lessons.

Ryley raised his hand casually, "Canada has 2 official languages; English and French!" he explained.

"Correct Ryley, who's next?" Headmaster Johnson said.

Peggy then decided she might as well add something because she wanted to graduate at the end of the year, "Canada is located north of the United States."

Xylia raised her hand. "Well Canada was discovered by the French People."
This is where I say I've had enough
and no one should ever feel the way that I feel now.
A walking open wound,
a trophy display of bruises
and I don't believe that I'm getting any better.

"Correct Xylia, but only part of it was! The french discovered the area around Quebec & Ontario. While the Spanish founded the west coast and an Italian founded Newfoundland!!" Headmistress Johnson replied as she added to Xylia's point.
Re: 1st Lesson...
"Alright, well, I was just saying." Xylia sank in her chair.

"Right you are, Andaleeb!" the Headmistress exclaimed. She was extremely pleased at the number of students which had bagan to participate, yet she was hoping the rest would join in too.
Re: 1st Lesson...
JP raised his hand and said slowly to the teacher "Canada Is one of the largest countrys." hoping he was correct in some manner.

"Good guess, but actually Canada is the SECOND largest country in the world, after to Russia which is the largest." Headmistress corrected as she hoped everyone would jot that information down, as it my be on their next test!

Kynthelig, in the back of his room raised his hand, "It is usually accepted that the Norse had their first european settlement in Newfoundland if I remember right."
