10/25/21 – Social Studies – Your Values in our Political Parties
We began talking about issues that all 3 governments worked on. First, we brainstormed many “issues” that are out there in our country, province, and city. We narrowed them down to 7-8 main issues and then prioritized them based on their importance.
We agreed that all issues were important and soon realized that our individual opinions and priorities were different. We used these priorities to form our political parties.
Today, we spent our social studies period brainstorming and discussing our issues. We only filled out our priority number and have not started the researching and stating our opinions on these issues.

10/12/21 – Social Studies – Political Spectrum and Federal Party Research begins
Today for social studies, we discussed what a political spectrum is. Key points include:
- Not everybody has their own opinion on topics such as gun control, pipelines, the environment, and taxes.
- We represent our different views on a line and we refer to some topics using the words left and right.
- Political parties have different views, and that’s why we have to vote and elect someone who represents our views.
We began researching 5 of Canada’s well-known parties and their platforms. Today, we researched the left column only.
