Social Studies Quiz on Thursday and Friday

Portable 10, 16, and 18 will be having a social studies quiz this coming Thursday May 17 and Friday May 18.  For the quiz you will need to know:

• Where the provinces and territories go on a map of Canada 

•  Where the physical regions of Canada go on a map of Canada 

•  The difference between a political region and a physical region 

•  Compare the similarities and differences between 2 or more physical regions of Canada

 To help you remember the provinces, there is a song that you can sing to yourself which orders them from east to west.

     Lyrics: 


     The provinces of Canada are fun to remember,
     Fun to remember, fun to remember (x2)
     So sing them with me.

     Newfoundland and P.E.I,
     Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick
     Quebec, Ontario, and from there you'll see
     Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, B.C.

     (But don't forget about Nunavut, Northwest      
     Territories, and the Yukon!)

Also, take a look at the map of Canada below and try to label all 10 provinces and 3 territories yourself.  Click here to practice.
