Historia de Canadá: Parte 2

Welcome to your Canadian History Course! 

In this eight-week course, students will learn about some of the important topics of Canadian history. For a detailed list of topics that will be covered in this course please view the Syllabus tab.  Students can take Part 1 or Part 2 independently. (Please see Part 1 for reviews as this was originally one combined course https://outschool.com/classes/canadian-history-part-1-Of0U30ZC#us9wS1by9C).

In these classes, students will view a slideshow presentation with pictures, key information, videos, and discussion questions to help guide our time together. My goal as a history teacher is to have your child remember the experiences and stories of those who lived during those times and to gain an empathetic understanding of the challenges and injustice circumstances that shaped Canadian society. Using the historical thinking concepts (continuity and change, historical significance, cause and consequence, historical perspective, and ethical dimensions), students will gain an understanding of the difficult parts of Canadian history such as the mistreatment of the indigenous people. It is important for students to understand the lasting impacts that history has on our present world.  We will also examine the advancements that Canadian society made in terms of independence, technology, and governmental systems. 

In addition to our weekly classes together, students will also be given a weekly task to complete to help solidify their understanding of particular historical topics. Please see the 'Homework' tab below for more information.
