Teaching the Grade 3 Living and Working in Ontario AND the Grade 4 Political and Physical Regions of Canada units can be challenging, especially with students on accommodated IEPs….but this Strand B FRENCH blended social studies unit in both printable and digital versions saves the day! It IS possible to teach your Grade 3/4 French Immersion class using lessons and activities without having to jump back and forth between grades!
NOTE: This French Immersion version of this bundle contains all student texts and tasks in French, while teacher lesson plans and notes remain in English to cut down on the cost of translation for you!
This printable + digital resource meets the expectations from the 2018 Ontario Social Studies Curriculum, using the big ideas to blend both units together. That means you can teach one lesson to both grades, and then each grade level can explore the big ideas using parallel texts and tasks! By having both the printable AND digital versions, you can survive in a hybrid learning situation or transition easily between in-class and distance learning. It also allows students with IEP accommodations to access the same contact digitally that their classmates are doing using paper and pencil.

Digital Version: Frequently Asked Questions:
What will I need to assign this resource to my students?
You will require:
❶ Access to the internet
❷ A Google Drive Account
Why should I consider purchasing a bundle with both printable and digital versions?
✔ The digital resources completely align with the regular units. This makes it extremely easy to meet IEP accommodations for specific students with little effort on your part.
✔ The digital resources are paperless, which is perfect if your school administrator asks you to cut down on photocopying!
✔ The saturated, full-colour interactive slides are engaging for students.
✔ It’s easy to implement with distance learning.
✔ It’s just fun to use!
Can I edit this resource?
I have left 95% of the texts in editable form for two reasons:
➀ to ensure that students are able to use Google Read & Write with the activities.
➁ to allow teachers to edit texts and tasks when they feel it suitable for their class or to address IEP accommodations for specific students.
How do I collect student work?
Your students will simply complete their own copies of the lessons, and turn them into your platform (ie. Google Classroom).
