Alberta Grade 3 Social Studies Curriculum Overview

Grade 3 Social Studies in Alberta introduces students to communities around the world. Students explore how geography, culture, and available resources shape the way people live and meet their needs. These lessons build directly on the local community focus of Grade 2, expanding the perspective to include communities in other parts of Canada and the world.

Key Topics in Alberta Grade 3 Social Studies

  • Communities in the World: Students compare their own community with communities in other countries, looking at similarities and differences in daily life, traditions, and values.
  • Geography and Environment: Students learn how physical geography — including landforms, climate, and natural resources — affects how communities are built and how people live.
  • Meeting Needs and Wants: Students examine how individuals, families, and communities work together to meet basic needs and how trade and cooperation play a role.
  • Culture and Traditions: Students explore how cultural practices, celebrations, and stories connect people to their community and heritage.
  • Citizenship and Belonging: Students learn about rights, responsibilities, and what it means to be an active member of a community.
