FRANCE
The goal of this site is to provide a list of resources
on France for teachers. The sites selected have been done so with the
B.C. social studies learning outcomes in mind. Parents, students, and
others interested in learning about France may also find the links
helpful.
According to the B.C. IRP "the overarching goal of
social studies is to develop thoughtful, responsible, and active
citizens who are able to acquire the requisite information to
consider multiple perspectives and to make reasoned judgments." It is
important to provide students with opportunities to "critically
reflect upon events and issues in order to examine the present, make
connections with the past, and consider the future"(B.C. IRP).
