This series looks at continuity and change in the rural community. and/or Life in a Fishing Community (Lunenburg, NS) This title looks at offshore fishing, continuity and change, and cause and consequence.

3 CORE LEARNING COMPETENCIES (ALL SUBJECTS) COMMUNICATION: The set of abilities students use to impart and exchange information, experiences and ideas, to explore the world around them, and to effectively engage in the use of digital media. THINKING: The ability students have to take subject-specific concepts and transform them into new understanding which includes specific thinking skills as well as habits of mind and awareness. CREATIVE THINKING: Creative thinking involves the generation of new ideas that have value to the individual or others, and the development of these ideas and concepts from thought to reality. CRITICAL THINKING: Critical thinking is the ability to examine one s own thinking, and that of others, about information that they receive through observation, experience, and communication. PERSONAL AND SOCIAL Personal and social competency is the set of abilities that relate to students' identity in the world, both as individuals and as members of their community and society. POSITIVE PERSONAL AND CULTURAL IDENTITY The positive personal and cultural identity competency involves the awareness, understanding, and appreciation of all the facets that contribute to a healthy sense of oneself including family background, beliefs, and perspectives in a pluralistic society. PERSONAL AWARENESS AND RESPONSIBILITY Personal awareness and responsibility includes the skills and strategies in staying healthy and active, setting goals, monitoring progress, regulating emotions, respecting their own rights and the rights of others, managing stress, and persevering in difficult situations.

These thought processes help children explore their own connection to the past, empower them to imagine possible futures, and encourage them to be critical readers of historical narratives. SIGNIFICANCE Explain why people, events, and places are significant to various individuals and groups EVIDENCE Why do people have different opinions on what people and events are more significant than others?

8 UNIT TWO RIGHTS, RESPONSIBILITES & CONSEQUENCES Big Idea: Local actions have global consequences-global actions have local consequences. Big Idea: Individuals have rights and responsibilities as global citizens. RESOURCES Canada, My Country Lessons Our Canadian Flag by Maxine Trottier or Our Flag, The Story of Canada s Maple Leaf by Ann-Maureen Owens Optional: Terry Fox, A Story of Hope by Maxine Trottier; Canadian Biographies Bundle by Maxine Trottier CONTENT Rights and responsibilities of individuals regionally and globally Roles and responsibilities of regional governments KEY QUESTIONS How are decisions made in your region? Should everyone be responsible for helping others in their community? What are the connections between your community and communities around the world? INQUIRY PROCESS Draw simple interpretations from personal experiences, oral sources, and visual and written sources Use selected communication forms (e.g. software, models, maps, oral, written) for presentation Brainstorm and compare a variety of responses to a given problem Predict the possible results of various solutions to a problem Demonstrate willingness to consider diverse points of view UNIT 3: LESSONS LESSON 12: THE MAPLE LEAF FOREVER Activity: Think of a time when you have felt lonely or fearful and someone has helped you, or think of a time you have helped someone else. Create a picture you can use to tell of this experience. You might draw a picture showing the people involved or create a picture symbol to represent this event. First Peoples often painted symbols called pictographs on rocks to tell stories or events. It would be fun to create stone art by painting your picture on a rock. (First Peoples link) LESSON 13: THE CANADIAN FLAG Following the lesson, read a book about Canada s Flag. Activity: Download (see EasyLinks) and print some flags, colour, and use to proudly decorate your space.

Do you think the maple leaf recognized around the world as a unique symbol of Canada? Why or why not?
9 Discussion Prompts: Proper flag etiquette shows respect for the flag and respect for the country represented by the flag. Flags flown at half-mast show respect and honour for a person who has died. Canada s maple leaf symbol is globally recognized as it is prominent on Canada s flag and displayed proudly on sporting attire, travel gear, and as part of badges of the Canadian Armed Forces. LESSON 14: CANADA S COAT OF ARMS Activity: Create a coat of arms to describe your family. LESSON 15: CANADA S MONARCH Discuss: Why do you think Canada got a new flag instead of continuing to use the Union Jack? Is the Union Jack present on any flags in Canada today? Discussion Prompts: Canadians wanted a flag to represent their unique identity. The Union Jack is still part of the flags of some of the provinces (BC, MB, ON) The Great Flag Debate was prompted by a disagreement between some citizens who wanted a uniquely Canadian flag, and others who wanted to maintain ties with the United Kingdom and represent that with the Union Jack. LESSON 16: GOVERNMENT IN CANADA View: Levels of Government (Easy Links > Canada, My Country > p. 45) Activity: If you live near your provincial capital, take a tour of the Legislative buildings (online search provincial legislature tours ). Contact your MPP, mayor or municipal representative to inquire about arranging a meeting. Think of questions to ask them (see suggestions in Canada, My Country p. 47) including, what they think is their greatest contribution on behalf of your community. Ask which issue provides the greatest debate because of varying perspectives. Come up with a creative idea to show appreciation for their work on behalf of your community (e.g. bake cookies or make a card). Discuss: What would be the consequences if your community did not have leaders. Discussion Prompts: What are some of the services you enjoy which are directed by government. LESSON 18: THE HAPPY TAXPAYER Activity: Purchase something and notice the tax that is charged on your item. Discuss: What should we do if we do not like how our taxes are spent? LESSONS 20-23: FREEDOMS IN CANADA LESSONS 24-28: OUTSTANDING CANADIANS Optional: Terry Fox, A Story of Hope by Maxine Trottier; Canadian Biographies Bundle by Maxine Trottier Discuss: How do we decide which people, events and places are significant and to whom?
