De geografie van Canada is divers en indrukwekkend, met kenmerken als verschillende meren, uitgestrekte bergketens, glooiende centrale vlaktes, rivieren en bossen. Het Canadian Shield, een heuvelachtig gebied van moerassen en meren, maakt een groot deel uit van Noord-Canada. Het noordelijke deel van Canada is koud, ijzig en gevuld met gletsjers. Voor deze activiteit zullen de leerlingen een poster maken die enkele van de prachtige geografische kenmerken die Canada te bieden heeft, belicht.

Instructies voor studenten:
Invite your students to work together to create a large mural that showcases Canada's diverse geography. This hands-on project helps students visualize and understand different regions while building teamwork skills.
Assign groups or pairs of students to focus on different Canadian regions, such as the Canadian Shield, Rocky Mountains, or Great Lakes. This ensures each area is represented and encourages focused research.
Ask each group to find interesting facts and images about their assigned region’s geography. Encourage them to include landforms, climate, and wildlife in their research.
Set out markers, colored pencils, construction paper, and other materials. Encourage students to use bright visuals and creative labeling to make each region stand out on the mural.
Hang the finished mural in a visible spot. Have each group briefly present their section, sharing unique facts and explaining their artistic choices to the class for a fun, educational showcase.
Key geographical features of Canada to include are the Canadian Shield, the Rocky Mountains, Great Lakes, vast forests, central plains, major rivers like the St. Lawrence, and the icy, glacier-filled northern regions.
Guide students to use school resources such as atlases, library books, and reliable educational websites. Encourage them to look for maps, photos, and fun facts about Canada's landforms and climate for their posters.
The Canadian Shield is a massive region of ancient rock, swamps, and lakes covering much of northern Canada. It is important for its unique landscape, natural resources, and influence on Canada's environment and settlement patterns.
Use bright colors, labeled maps, drawings of animals or landmarks, and fun facts. Encourage students to add illustrated symbols for mountains, lakes, and forests to make the poster visually appealing and educational.
Learning about Canadian geography helps students understand their country's diversity, natural resources, and history. It builds map skills and appreciation for different regions, supporting broader social studies goals.
