Subject: Social Science

Social Studies 10 involves an exploration of Canada and the World, from 1919 to the present, focusing on four Big Ideas.

  1. Global and regional conflicts have been a powerful force in shaping our contemporary world and identities.
  2. The development of political institutions is influenced by economic, social, ideological, and geographic factors.
  3. Worldviews lead to different perspectives and ideas about developments in Canadian society.
  4. Historical and contemporary injustices challenge the narrative and identity of Canada as an inclusive, multicultural society.

“Through their study of historical events, students will gain an understanding of the people, places, issues, and events that have shaped the world they live in… Social Studies provides students with an understanding of their place in the world and the connections between the human and natural environment.”
