GRADEIntroduction1SOCIAL STUDIES AND THE CREATION OF A DEMOCRATIC LEARNING COMMUNITYelcome to the world of social studies, where studentshave opportunities to interact with each other indemocratic groups and communities, and to acquire theknowledge, values, and skills they need to become active,responsible citizens within our Canadian society. As they grow andlearn the skills of citizenship, they not only contribute to theirlearning communities, but also contribute to the betterment of oursociety.WWhat do active, responsible citizens look like? They are aware ofthe world in which they live, and they care about people aroundthem—the people with whom they share this planet, both near and far away. They know thattheir actions affect others. They have informed opinions, and think critically about issues thatconcern themselves and others. They have the confidence to make their voices heard, to takea stand on issues, and to engage in social action when necessary. They are concerned with thewell-being of the environment, and live their lives in ways that reflect that concern.BackgroundThis document was produced by Manitoba Education, Citizenship and Youth, in collaborationwith Manitoba educators. It includes the core concept citizenship, and identifies general andspecific learning outcomes. It integrates the four foundation skill areas of literacy andcommunication, problem solving, human relations, and technology, and provides ideas andstrategies to support the implementation of social studies. It is mandated for use in all schoolsin Manitoba.A Brief History of the Social Studies CurriculumJust as knowing oneself means knowing one’s history, fullyunderstanding the new social studies curriculum requires knowingsomething of its history. The Manitoba curriculum was createdthrough a culturally collaborative process; diverse voices guidedthe process, and the result is a social studies curriculum that betterreflects the cultural reality of Canada.The first stage of the process was the creation of the *WesternCanadian Protocol (WCP) Common Curriculum Framework forSocial Studies, Kindergarten to Grade 9 (2002). This was the first inter-provincial/territorialcurriculum project to include both Aboriginal and francophone representatives as full andequal partners in the development process.* In November 2003 the name was changed to the Western and Northern Canadian Protocol (WNCP) forCollaboration in Basic Education.1
