This resource toolkit is intended to be used with the Grade 10 Applied, Canadian
History since World War 1 (CHC2P). The toolkit provides six separate lessons focusing on the “Big
Six” found in Peter Seixas’ “The Big Six Historical Thinking Concepts.” Each lesson focuses on at
least one of the “Big Six” and has full lesson plans, student handouts, some PowerPoint
presentations, Primary and Secondary source documents. The overarching theme of the lessons is
focusing on the Holocaust and the relevance and role of Canada and Canadian troops in the
Holocaust. The lessons vary in time, and can be adjusted for time accordingly. These lessons are not
limited to Grade 10 Applied History, and can be adapted to Academic or even Grade 12 University,
The West and the World (CHY4U). Teachers are encouraged to adapt lessons according to students’
needs.
