Teacher Interview:

Student 1: Jace

1. I like learning about history, especially how Canada was formed. It makes me understand where we come from.

2. It shows us how past events connect to today. Like, a lot of stuff happening in the world now is kind of like what happened before.

3. It helps me think more about what’s fair or unfair in the world, and it makes me pay more attention to current events.

4. Maybe more hands-on activities instead of just notes. Like projects or field trips would make it more fun.

5. It helps me with English, because we do a lot of reading and writing essays.

6. Remembering all the dates and names. There’s so many, and I get them mixed up.

Student 2: Chuck

1. I like the class discussions. Sometimes people have different opinions, and it makes it more interesting than just reading from the textbook.

2. It’s useful because it helps us understand people and how societies work. You kind of see the bigger picture of the world.

3. It makes me more aware of different cultures and perspectives. I feel like I get why people think the way they do.

4. if we could talk about more recent events, not just the old stuff.

5. it helps with science sometimes, like geography or understanding resources. It connects more than you think.

6. Writing long answers. I know what I want to say, but it’s hard to put it into words.

Student 3: Parma

I like social studies because of my teacher Mr. Pablico, he is very chill and I like him.
Learning about history and so that we don’t repeat the same mistakes we did in history.
In my opinion, social studies does not help in life at ALL
I wished we learned topics that apply to the real world, especially the present.
It helps me think critically as well as improving my answers.
One thing I struggle with is trying to reflect all this learning and be able to apply this in real life situations.
