History is full of fascinating people and events. We don't have to look too far to learn about these. Some of the most interesting stories are in our own backyard. This year we will be learning about Canadian identity....what it means to be Canadian. We will be looking at how Canadian identity developed through historical events such as World War II. We will explore our Canadian identity through music and art to name a few.
