A Kids’ Guide to Canada project is a national teacher-led initiative which has been organized by elementary teachers across Canada to provide rich and meaningful educational activities for K-8 students marking Canada150th+. All K-8 students are invited to help create Canada’s first ever multi-lingual, multi-cultural interactive guide to Canada made by kids and for kids, and in the process help to build a new era of “understanding, empathy, respect”. (Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Call to Action 63.3)
The Kids’ Guide to Canada project is…
- 100% free, inclusive, bilingual, and Canadian
- cross-curricular, open-ended
- 1 day time commitment (minimum)
- teaches student safety and security
- provides support for schools lacking reliable internet service
Join me to learn about how your students can get involved and help to write a brand new chapter in Canada’s history!
