Grade
5: BC Communities and Their Resources
Extensions
- Ask students
to access the websites http://www.wellsbc.com/communityhall/
and http://www.tbc.gov.bc.ca/culture/schoolnet/drawings/sites/site1/1describ.html
to explore how the community of Wells is trying to remember its
past by adapting a historic building to serve its present needs.
Ask them to share their findings with the class.
- Classes in
areas with easy access to the towns focused on in this lesson
would ideally arrange to visit the heritage locations and museums
in the towns. Preparation prior to the excursion and debriefing
after it are necessary for a successful visit.
- From conventional
print sources and/or from on-line sources ask students to compose
"biographies" of one of the towns focused on in this
lesson. The "biographies" should be illustrated with
maps and photographs. For illustrations, direct them to explore
the on-line resource BC Archives: Visual Record: http://www.bcarchives.gov.bc.ca/visual/visual.htm.
