Social Studies
The Alberta Social Studies Program is highly relevant to students in Mazatlán, as it meets the needs and reflects the nature of 21st-century learners. The program that we implement at Mapletree centers on the concepts of citizenship and identity, which are essential in both the Canadian and Mexican contexts. It emphasizes diversity, respect for differences, social cohesion, and effective societal functioning, fostering a sense of belonging and acceptance.
By developing key values, attitudes, knowledge, understanding, and skills, the program prepares students in Mazatlán to become active, responsible citizens who are engaged in democracy and aware of their capacity to effect change in their communities and the world.
