Social
Studies: This week we have begun our work on a long-term
project that focuses on the natural resources of Canadian regions.
Students are to imagine that they are part of a TV
series on natural resources of Canada and their goal is to inform Canadians on
the following topics:
-
How a particular natural resource is used in a
particular region (industries, jobs, hobbies)?
-
Why this natural resource is important for the quality
of life in that Canadian region? (industries, jobs, cultural aspect, society)
-
What are the environmental concerns linked to the
extraction and processing of that natural resource?
-
How the perspective of the Indigenous people influenced
the way they used this resource in the past ?
Today students have chosen their natural resource and
the region(s) they will be researching. All work will be done in Google Drive.
