Students examine volunteering activities and the role volunteers play in their community. They also explore how an individual's personal qualities and interests can inspire their volunteering activities. The goal of the theme is to encourage the willingness to be socially responsible and
contribute to the community. Students read about Canadian volunteering Web sites as well as remarkable celebrity and Canadian teenaged volunteers.
Final Task: Students work individually or in small groups to plan and complete a volunteering project. They keep a log book of their
activities and write an article about their volunteering experience. Students then publish a class electronic newsletter about their volunteering activities.
The TRB is organized into 8 to 10 "lessons". Each lesson is broken down into three phases: Pre-Activity, Activity, Post-Activity.
The TRB contains methodology, language, content and outcomes summary charts, and comprehensive lesson plans written by practicing teachers. Also includes assessment and evaluation with reproducible rubrics, checklists and worksheets, as well as additional activities (in reproducible master format).
In every thematic unit, teaching notes are provided for combined grades, differentiated instruction for varying ability levels and for varying the final task.
