Grades 5-8
Heroes make excellent role models. These life stories of Canadians - young and old, male and female, from across the country will provide your students with solid role models. Heroes in times of disaster, medicine and science, sports, personal accomplishment, and the everyday heroes that care for others are all included to provide a balanced view of what makes a person stand out in the crowd. Each story is followed by reading for meaning, word study, and language activities to provide a well-rounded learning experience.
Inspirational people are part of what it means to be Canadian, and that is something we all share - inside and outside the classroom
