Abstract
Using a variety of sources, historical thinking concepts, activities and assignments, these
lessons allow for students to use primary sources as significant pieces of evidence in furthering their
understanding of Canada, from 1914 to 1929. To establish Historical Perspective, students will be given
profiles of different people who would have lived during World War I. The students will analyze each
perspective, allowing them to understand how events can change based on your perspective. Using World
War I battles, students with examine their Historical Significance to explore what makes something
significant enough to influence Canada’s identity. To see the effects of Continuity and Change, students
will analyze the Black Soldiers lament and Shimaganish. Students will consider how minorities were
affected and treated during World War I, and compare the knowledge to current events today. By looking
into war propaganda, students will examine the Cause and Consequences of their own propaganda
posters. By incorporating concepts learned in the previous lessons, students will explore how propaganda
has influenced Canada’s identity over the course of time.
