Students begin by exploring the meaning of community and identifying the communities to which they belong, including family, school, neighbourhood, Edmonton, Alberta, and Canada. They examine community features such as homes, schools, parks, transportation, services, languages, traditions, and gathering places. Students learn to use maps, symbols, photographs, interviews, and classroom discussions to represent and describe their community. Emphasis is placed on belonging, respect, inclusion, and recognizing that communities can be diverse while sharing common needs and responsibilities.
