Description
Teaching Grade 5 students about The Role of Government and Responsible Citizenship in Canada does NOT have to be a dry, boring chore! Make this social studies strand come alive with an inquiry-based unit that has your students exploring social and environmental issues of interest to them and learning how federal, provincial, territorial, and municipal governments affect these issues. Students will be recording their new knowledge in an Action Plan flipbook, while also working towards a culminating task that allows students to explain how they feel different levels of government should handle an important issue.
NOTE:
- While the Ontario Social Studies Curriculum was updated in 2023, the Grade 5 curriculum was not affected by the revision (I promise)!

PLEASE NOTE: This unit is the 3rd in a series of Grade 5 Social Studies Government Units, each for a different year's version of the curriculum. Because I want previous buyers to have access to the units that they originally purchased, I have included them here in a zipped folder for convenience. Only hyperlinks in the most recent version of this Strand B resource will updated regularly.
Also, teachers from across the country purchase my government unit, so if you are a teacher from outside Ontario, please know that there is a full unit bundled in here for you!
