Make a Better City Teacher's Resource
Make a Better City is a teaching resource for grade 6 Social Studies, Health & Lifeskills, and Language Arts courses. It explores how we live together in an urban community like Edmonton, why we need rules and bylaws, and how people can make a difference in their community.
If you think Make a Better City might work in your classroom, please take a look at teacher's resource.
