Grade 7 Social Studies Complete Unit — Systems (NEW Alberta Curriculum) | 179-Page Print-and-Go Bundle

Finally — a complete resource built for Alberta's brand-new Grade 7 Social Studies curriculum.

With the new curriculum rollout, there's no textbook yet and almost nothing on the market that actually matches the new outcomes. This 179-page unit was written from the ground up to close that gap — every reading passage, activity, and assessment is mapped directly to the new "Systems" strand outcomes, so you're not stuck adapting an old resource and hoping it lines up.

This single bundle covers two full topic areas:

• Canada's Economy After Confederation — the National Policy, the Canadian Pacific Railway, tariffs vs. free trade, GDP, regional economies and equalization, and banking/the Bank of Canada
• Canada's System of Government — the Quebec and London Conferences, the British North America Act, the three branches of government, how leaders are chosen, federalism, and Canada's court system

No other resource on the market currently ties these two outcome areas together into one cohesive unit.

What You're Getting

179 total pages — 136 student-facing pages, plus 43 pages of teacher support (notes, answer keys, and grading exemplars).

• 13 original student reading passages, written at a grade 6–7 reading level (no textbook needed)
• 52 student activities (4 per section) — comprehension questions, graphic organizers, Venn diagrams, sequencing tasks, GDP math practice, persuasive writing, mock trial scripts, fictional narrative readings, and more
• A 20-option student project menu spanning both units, so students can choose the format that shows their learning best
• A 100-question multiple-choice practice test formatted like a provincial achievement test, with a genuinely randomized, evenly distributed answer key (25/25/25/25 split — verified programmatically, not eyeballed)
• A 50-term vocabulary glossary with student-friendly definitions
• Complete teacher answer keys with grading exemplars and notes for every activity
• 3-point rubrics (Beginning / Developing / Proficient) for every open-ended and culminating task

Why Teachers Are Choosing This Unit

• Actually built for the new curriculum — not an old resource relabeled
• Print-and-go — every page is classroom-ready, no formatting or editing required
• Real-world grounding — students engage with real events and figures (the Persons Case, the softwood lumber dispute, NAFTA/CUSMA, real GDP data) instead of abstract theory
