Grade 11 Social Studies
Cross Cultural Interactions & Human Rights
This lesson focuses on cultural awareness, cross cultural interactions and the emotions and perceptions that come through experiencing differences. It is designed as an introductory less to the course with possible extension ideas included. This lesson is based around a role play activity and is aimed at getting students to realize the differences between large cultural groups as well as smaller cultural groups, such as a family.

It’s about money, money, money: more money, more problems?
Students are given a ‘job’ along with a typical salary associated with that job and create a budget that includes taxes, shelter, food, clothing, bills, communication costs, savings and entertainment. Students present their results to the class.
Grade 12 Social Studies
Cross Cultural Interactions and Human Rights
Students deepen their understanding of the term ‘culture’ and identify some aspects that make up a persons’ culture through exploring multiple books displaying people living their life around the world. Students will examine how culture has been repressed or eliminated in a current or historical situation.
