Supplementary Lessons - Grade 4: Sharing Knowledge
Learning Outcomes Grade 4 Generalization Rationale
Objectives
Teacher Information Introductory Activity
Main Lesson Students will each need a large piece of poster paper. They should title their poster, “Sharing Knowledge.” The poster should be broken into two categories, one for Aboriginal and the other for Fur Traders and Settlers. Under each section students will list in writing and with pictures taken from the Student Zone Photograph Gallery ways in which each group would have shared knowledge with the other. For example, fur traders may have shared information about guns so students would write guns and find a picture of an Aboriginal person or fur trader holding a gun. Students may also illustrate their examples if they chose. Aboriginal people may have shared knowledge about hunting so students could write hunting and draw a picture of a buffalo. Supplementary Lesson Students will chose two individuals from the Biographies section of the Student Zone and create a mini biography on them. Students should choose one person born before 1900 and one person born after 1900. Students should try and include a picture and should make note of the contribution each person made to Alberta. The student must also identify why they chose this person. This exercise can be done in written format. |
