Readings in Canadian History

About this curriculum

If you are looking for an inexpensive and flexible "living books" approach to studying Canadian history or for a uniquely Canadian unit study program, you have found it! The Readings in Canadian History program contains enough varied activity suggestions to keep your student busy for a long time. Some assignments could even be weighted heavily as science objectives (e.g. tides in Nova Scotia). If you use RICH as the core of a unit study program, you will need to add math, phonics, and Bible. There are many opportunities in RICH for language arts activities (reading, learning vocabulary, spelling, handwriting, narrating, writing, researching, making up/answering questions, interviewing), art activities (drawing, copying, tracing maps & pictures), and project activities (role-playing, making models, designing unique projects), etc. Since this is a study guide and not a workbook, you tailor the assignments as needed for your student, making them as simple or as complex as you feel they need to be. And you grade (or not) according to how well you believe your child handled the assignment…
