Societies & Territories Toolkit : Student Field Journals

Societies and Territories is an English version of Récit univers social - sociétés et territoires, with additional resources hosted by Learn. This is a specialized resource with interactive activities for Geography, History and Citizenship Education for Elementary (2nd and 3rd cycles).

Ce site imagé contient de nombreuses informations en univers social. Les sections sont divisées par périodes historiques, par Premières Nations et par grands événements historiques. Chaque période couvre les aspects de population, de territoire, de personnages marquants, de groupes sociaux, de la vie quotidienne, de la langue, de la culture, de la religion, de l'agriculture, du commerce, de l'industrie, du transport, de la communication et du gouvernement. On y trouve aussi des vidéos et un lexique des termes utilisés en histoire et en géographie.

The Iroquoian and Algonquian people lived in territories that had different characteristics. These features influenced their lifestyle. In this scenario, students will choose one of the two societies, either Iroquoian or Algonquian. They will then read the text that describes their way of life, find the marker points on the map that describe the characteristics of that group's territory, complete the chart on the characteristics of their territory and finally, compare the way of life of your chosen society with that studied by one of your classmates.
