Cycle 2 History: Harmonization of content and concepts

Laval-Laurentides-Lanaudière (LLL)" and adapted by LEARN for the Anglophone sector teachers.
These documents offer a way to map map course content and content across the two years of
Cycle 2 History! They offer suggestions as to which "notional content" can be consider
"specific to" a particular year of the program.

The new Social Sciences PLC
What's a PLC? It's a
Professional
Learning
Community.
It's a place to communicate your needs, share your experience, and keep up with what is
going on in the Social Sciences
in Quebec.
Joining the SS-PLC means you will have access to various resources shared by teachers,
student-teachers, board consultants and of course the LEARN teams. It will allow you to
access a sheltered area, where educators can experiment, and send feedback, and even work on new
documents together.

The Centre d'histoire de Montréal, the city museum, offers you the key to discovering Montreal’s multiple identities. Both a museum and a centre dedicated to animating and disseminating history and heritage, the Centre d'histoire spreads its services and its many activities, exhibitions, and guided tours throughout the different neighbourhoods of the city, in collaboration with local associations, presentation spaces, institutions, and citizens.
The Memory Project
Stories of Second World War
Technique: The Timeline... using the Lignedutemps!
The RECITUS's extraordinary timeline creation and sharing tool was adapted by LEARN last year for Anglophone sector teachers and students. We kept the title "Lignedutemps", so you can always remember this is a Quebec production! Check it out.
Where to Draw the Line? / Sans Rature ni Censure?
Where to Draw the Line is a new online exhibition at the McCord-Museum "where controversy rules! But watch your step! Every click of the mouse can trigger wild laughter or push you into deep thought… Take a look back at events that made headlines in Montreal between 1950 and 2000. Explore our collection using our cool and unusual search interface. Learn about the art of cartooning. And take a stand by telling others what you think."
The VMC Teachers' Centre Goes Web 2.0
Bringing Canadian museums and their collections to your fingertips, this new online learning space makes it possible for teachers to consult lesson plans or to create their own, and you can bring your lessons to life by interacting and participating directly with students.
The Historical Atlas (Français) 
The Historical Atlas site provides access to a multitude of historical maps, produced mainly by the authors of archives built with the software Chronos.

This very useful site is a companion to the book A Different World: An Educational Tool Kit for Building Global Justice, designed for Quebec secondary classrooms but useful in schools across Canada and beyond. (Order book here)
The Poverty and Basic Human Needs Module explores the themes of nutrition, hunger and food security, health and HIV/AIDS, the environment and water. The Globalization and Trade Module explores the themes of globalization, trade and multinational corporations.
