The Geography of Canada (CGC1D)

Course Description:

                                                

This course draws on a variety of frameworks, such as the ecozone framework, and principles of physical, human, and economic geography, to explore Canada’s distinct and evolving character. Students will investigate the interconnections among the landforms, climate, soils, plants, animals, and human activities in Canadian ecozones to develop geographic knowledge and skills that contribute to an understanding of Canada’s diversity and its role in the world. Students will examine the components of natural and human systems, how they interact and influence one another, and Canada’s relationships with the global community as they work towards a culminating unit on sustainable development.
