Celebrate Giving Tuesday with us
A generous donor to the Society has offered to match donations up to $75,000. Your gift will nurture in Canadian youth a passion for Canada’s diverse history.
Gina McMurchy–Barber's approach to teaching Canadian history begins with concrete experiences and materials that lead to abstract learning. For each history unit she creates board games, puzzles, timelines or matching exercises for her students, ages 6 to 9. By far her most popular lessons are where students learn history through singing, dancing and acting. Music of different historical periods, combined with plays she writes for her classes, form the foundation of her approach that engenders a love and appreciation for history.
