Brisshana Benn (B.Sc.) Social Studies Made Easy - Levels 5 & 6 | i ii | Ministry of Education - Government of Guyana Preface Students, teachers and parents will find “Social Studies Made Easy (A Preparation Tool for Primary Social Studies Examinations)” very user friendly. Lessons have been systematically arranged and are easy to understand. Every lesson is followed by a Multiple Choice Assessment that contains common questions that students are going to encounter. The assessments help to ensure that students grasp concepts conveyed in each lesson. There are also Unit Reviews that contain questions that aim to test each child’s ability to apply all they have learnt. By completing unit reviews, it is hoped that children would recognize concepts learnt are not fragmented but are all interconnected. Teachers and parents can take part in grading each assessment taken by students. Conveniently, answers for each multiple choice assessment have been placed in the book. Close monitoring of each child’s performance aids in the early identification of any weakness that a child might have. Parents and teachers are then encouraged to work together to correct identified weaknesses. Taking these measures would guarantee that every child achieves success in examinations like the “National Grade Six Assessment” written in Guyana and “Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment” written in neighbouring countries.

We found ways to support our customers’ financing, increased our digital offerings, and changed our in-branch approach to be socially distant yet fully committed. At every step, and across all our territories, we kept a positive outlook.

History of Cooperatives .The Amerindians were the first set of people that came to Guyana and they practice cooperatives when harvesting and building homes. The Africans who were freed slaves pooled their resources and bought a number of plantations which they began to operate and manage. .History has recorded how they took the money they had managed to save in wheelbarrows to pay their purchases. These plantations bought by ex-slaves in the 1830s and 1840s were the first cooperatives in Guyana. .The other ethnic groups also practice cooperatives in Guyana .They develop the villages that they live in. .Amerindians practiced cooperation in their villages and still do today. Ethnic Group How they cooperated Picture Co-operation The Purchase of Victoria Victoria Village among the When the slaves became Africans. free, they no longer wished to stay and work for their ex- masters on the plantation. After emancipation, they worked for a short time on the plantations and pooled their wages. They used this money to purchase abandoned cotton plantations. Plantation Northbrook which they later renamed Victoria, was the first village they purchased. It is said that on the day they purchased Victoria, they took the money to the Plantation owners in a wheel-barrow. Victoria is located on the East Coast of Demerara- 20 kilometres from Georgetown.

    CONTENTS MESSAGES ARTISTIC VISION BACKGROUND ELEMENTS OF THE FESTIVAL MAIN VENUES ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE ACCOMMODATION ACCREDITATION CULINARY ARTS DANCE DRAMA FASHION FILM LITERARY ARTS MUSIC PHILATELIC ARTS SECURITY SYMPOSIA TRANSPORTATION VISUAL ARTS YOUTH VILLAGE FORMS APPENDICES PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE The Caribbean Festival of Arts (CARIFESTA) was born in Guyana many years ago. As the festival comes home, we welcome the opportunity to host and to embrace the artists, great creators and minds of the region as we did thirty six years ago. We are sparing no effort in preparing for this festival. Several hundred persons have been working over a long period of time on committees and working groups in order to ensure that all your expectations are met once you and your contingents arrive in our country. This underscores not only the importance we attach to this festival but to the ideal of Caribbean unity, growth and prosperity. Art transcends all barriers of time, space and person. Artists look beyond the externalities of the common and obvious, toward something greater in all humans, toward something larger than all humans. CARIFESTA therefore offers us the opportunity of transcending those things which can blind, limit and divide us as people, as nations and as a region. This festival offers us the opportunity to assess where we are, where we want to go and to fashion that direction in no uncertain terms. CARIFESTA X offers our region a chance to see what we are and what we produce, and to showcase that creativity to ourselves and the world. At this very important juncture in global economic history we must own what we originate and support those who create.
