Description
Bogged down by how you are going to present the new Social Studies Curriculum? Canadian Communities’ past and present expectations seem overwhelming? No time to teach Social Studies with all the other expectations? Looking to split your social studies over two terms to get two different marks? No problem!
This is a grade 6 unit. It has focused on the perspectives of First Nations peoples, Europeans, Chinese Railway Workers, Japanese Canadians and residential school survivors. Newly added are Immigration reasons, destruction of Africville, Oka Standoff, and Women’s rights articles.
The unit is split into the following themes:
Canadian Symbols and Identity
Settlers and Varying Perspectives
Contributions of Different Groups of People (inquiry style research project)
Groups and History of Civil Rights
Reasons for Coming to Canada
Culminating Activity
I have added an additional almost 45 pages including full and complete lesson plans for each activity and text as well as time estimates and tips. This means that you can pick and choose what your child is most interested in and not worry about not covering the content! Also included are many current events, video links, and fun review games.
This is the unit for you. This is designed for the new revised Social Studies curriculum. Language is fully updated to address current terminology.
This unit is primarily designed so that students can work through it independently without very much teacher assistance. It is designed as a ready-to-go curriculum so you can either use it on your Smartboard or photocopy the pages right from your download.
This inquiry-based unit, which meets the 2013 Ontario Ministry of Education Social Studies curriculum for Grade 6, provides a variety of activities meant to allow students to explore the perspectives of each group of people involved. It is over 100 pages of practice, reading worksheets, inquiry activities, and projects.
