Communities in Canada 1780-1850 Gr3

Developed to cover the overall expectations of the Ontario Ministry of Education Social Studies Communities in Canada, 1780-1850 curriculum. Students will compare ways of life among some specific groups in Canada around the beginning of the nineteenth century, and describe some of the changes between that era and the present day. Using the social studies inquiry process they will investigate some of the major challenges that different groups and communities faced in Canada from around 1780 to 1850, and learn the key measures taken to address these challenges. They will identify some of the communities in Canada around the beginning of the nineteenth century, and describe their relationships to the land and to each other.
