Social Studies

Unit 1:

Continuing to build on what they learned in Grade 3, students will build on their knowledge of municipal and landform regions, studying Canada’s political regions, including the provinces and territories and physical regions such as the country’s landform, vegetation and climatic regions.

Unit 2:

In Grade 4 Social Studies, students will develop their understanding of how we study the past, as they use various methods to examine the social organization, daily life and the relationship with the environment in different societies that existed between 3000 BCE and 1500 CE. Students will also build on what they have learned in earlier grades, using visual evidence, primary and secondary sources and maps to investigate a number of early societies from different regions and eras and representing different cultures.
