GENO-GROUPS

Your group will be responsible for researching one key aspect of the recent Truth and Reconciliation Commission. You look for:

Write your point form notes down into your portion of the placemat.
We will then meet with experts from the other groups who will share their research with you.
 There should be 10 points per section of the placemat.
