Les civilisations anciennes

With March break upon us we are wrapping up our science unit, light and sound. We finished our unit with a fun drama activity where we acted out scenes from "le bus magique". A few groups even filmed their scenes in front of our green screen in order to really be in the Friz's classroom. Cool!

After the break we will be diving into our second (and last) Social Studies unit, "les civilisations anciennes." We will start by looking at the Inuit who arrived in Canada well before the Common Era (CE). Next, we will look at a second civilisation in order to compare. The students will decide democratically which time and place to study. We have a vast choice among the Maya, the Aztek, ancient Greece, ancient Rome, antique China, mediaeval times etc. Time permitting we might even study a third.

Here is the link to our padlet with curriculum expectations and a few links. More link will be added once we have a better idea of what era and place we are studying further.
