This production is a stop animation video that depicts the history of land settlement in western Canada in the 1800s. The entire video was written and produced by my grade 3/4 students at Lucky Lake School. We studied the history, then they created the storyboard and wrote the script. All of the scenes were flimed with iPads on three different sets with students in the shop. I did the editing and added the sound and their prerecorded narration. All of the props where hand made from scratch or recycled materials. The entire project took one month to complete.
This is an excellent example of Project Based Learning in action!

The impact of treaty making in Canada has been wide-ranging and long standing. The treaties the Crown has signed with Aboriginal peoples since the 18th century have permitted the evolution of Canada as we know it. In fact, much of Canada's land mass is covered by treaties. This treaty-making process, which has evolved over more than 300 years between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in Canada, has its origins in the early diplomatic relationship developed between European settlers and Aboriginal people. As the two parties made economic and military alliances, Canada began to take form. These diplomatic proceedings were the first steps in a long process that has led to today's comprehensive claims agreements between the Crown and Aboriginal groups.
