Crossword Puzzles for Canadian History

 

Better Classroom Guidebooks publishes several collections of Canadian History crossword puzzles that can be very useful additions to your Social Studies classes.  They can be used:

  • to review the events in Canada’s history that parallel one of your units of study, or

  • as routine (weekly) activities, or

  • as sponge activities when students are finished other classroom activities. 

You will find that many of your students enjoy doing crossword puzzles and will complete the Canadian History crosswords for their own sakes; others will do them as an easy way to earn part of their course mark.  Some will even do them because they find the Canadian historical events entertaining.  No matter why your students use them, Better Classroom Guidebooks' crossword puzzles will help broaden their knowledge of Canadian history.

Like all of Better Classroom Guidebooks' teaching resources Canadian History crossword puzzles are distributed on DVD in .pdf format.
