Happy March Break!

Social Studies
When we return to school, we will be working on our Heritage Fair Projects. Your topic must be related to what we have studied in Social Studies, Canada's Physical and Political Regions. Your project must start with a inquiry based question.

Examples of  question format:

What is the importance of ...... (natural resource in Canada) to Canada?
How is the (physical region) important to the people of (political region)?
Is  (natural resource) Canada's most valuable natural resource?
How is (industry) important to the people of (political region)?
Is (natural feature) Canada's greatest tourist attraction?
How does Canada's climate influence....?

Sample questions:
Is water Canada's most valuable natural resource?
How is farming important to the people of Southwestern Ontario?
Why is  the Cordillera important to the people of British Columbia?
How is the fishing industry important to the people in Atlantic Canada?
How does the mining / forestry industry help the people of Northern Ontario?
How has ecotourism helped the Hudson Bay Lowlands?
How can we be good stewards of creation in the Canadian Shield?
In what ways can cities grow in Southern Ontario that respect all of God's gifts?
Is Niagara Falls Canada's greatest tourist attraction?
How does Canada's climate influence the sports we play?

Think about a question. IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE ONE OF THE ABOVE QUESTIONS. No two students may have the same question. If you already have a question in mind, write it on the piece of paper and submit it to me on Monday. Because we are a little late starting this, you will be gathering your information at home and bringing it to school starting next week. We will work together to write an outline for your project. Each question is unique, so everyone's outline will be different, but there will be similarities. The writing portion of your project will probably be 1 - 2 pages typed.
