Food Insecurity Lesson: At the end of the slides, there is an activity where students get into groups and calculate the total cost of a grocery list from Ottawa vs Iqaluit.

Tie this back to your conversation about food insecurity in Inuit communities and how grocery prices play a big role. 

CHC2P/2D Find The Spy Activity: This game is an introduction to the Cold War unit but could easily be adapted for other units. The first page of the document explains the game and how I used it to help gain an understanding of the game and its value.
