Our Stories Our Voices is a project inspired by Canada’s History Society, which allows students to explore a story that is important in their community’s past and share it with Canadians across the country through social media, an optional online contest, an optional virtual youth forum, and a special publication featuring winning projects. By learning about and sharing these stories, Canadians will discover new people, places, and events that illuminate our diverse past and unite us as Canadians. In particular, this project will enhance students’ understanding and application of the Historical Thinking Concepts, such as establishing historical significance and using primary source evidence. Students can work on this project independently with teacher check-ins.
