Introducing or reviewing information about Canada’s government system can be both engaging and educational! This self-checking trivia game, based on the Ontario Social Studies Curriculum for Grade 5, supports student learning in a fun atmosphere. It can be played as a whole-class activity using a projector, or by individual students as an enrichment opportunity or extra review task.
NOTE: This is “Round 2” of my Canadian Government Trivia Game; Round 1 is also for sale at my store. Both versions have the same five categories, but completely different questions.
Check out Round 1 here.
This game can be used as an engaging end-of-unit review before a test!
This social studies activity is a Powerpoint resource. Up to five teams can play this game.
