**Social Studies 7 ** SOCIAL STUDIES : Canada: Origins, Histories and Movement of Peoples 7.1 Toward Confederation 7.2 Following Confederation: Canadian Expansions

Through an examination of events preceding and following Confederation, Grade 7 students will acquire an understanding of how Canada has evolved into a multicultural, bilingual, pluralistic and diverse society; and they will appreciate how these dimensions of Canada have affected citizenship and identity over time. Grade 7 students will explore the origins, histories and movement of peoples who forged the foundations of Canadian Confederation. They will examine how the political, demographic, economic andsocial changes that have occurred since Confederation have influenced ways in which contemporary Canada has evolved. In a Catholic school, students are invited to consider how issues of social justice, the contribution of the Church to community (locally and globally), and Church teaching can be integrated appropriately into the social studies curriculum.
