With the passage of time and the ongoing evolution of the community, Greater Sudbury Heritage Museums will continue its mandate to represent in part the existing cultural assets and resources of our community and as such, form the building blocks in preserving our community’s heritage. The history of the City of Greater Sudbury encompasses some of the most significant themes in the history of the province and the country . Once the sole preserves of the Ojibway First Nations, the area has seen the ebb and flow of the Hudson Bay Company from the mid-nineteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth century . Since the middle of the nineteenth century, the area has revealed its riches to prospectors and settlers . The land has heard the ring of the lumberman’s axe and the clang of the Canadian Pacific Railway as it made its way across the landscape .

  • Greater Sudbury Area, You Can Take Part in the City’S Volunteer Tree-Planting Program
    1 Introduction – What You’ll Find in the Guide & On the DVD Welcome to the OntarioVisual Heritage Project. Each DVD in the series tells the stories of local history using archival film and photos, re-enactments, historian and expert related facts, personal anecdotes, animations and music. Use this rich resource as a starting point for your class to engage them in further study and the exploration of new ideas. Not only does this documentary reveal historical stories, it utilizes a variety of formats that teachers will love to use and develop for their classrooms – including flash and 2D animation, interviews, archival footage, and more! Students are brimming with imagination. They have been nurtured on digital communication and move comfortably in the global Internet community. If your students have access to technology and the Internet, then your assignments will reflect this digitization. But, if you must rely on traditional methods, the assignments will be no less exciting, just more immediate. Instead of creating a commercial about recruiting for the mines, students will create a skit – utilizing the same acting and scripting skills, minus the camera. The same goes for any potentially digital idea – an exchange of emails can be replaced by letter writing, a poster created with Photoshop might become an artistic drawing endeavour. There is a folder of rubrics that coincide with the various types of assignments. You will find examples of how to structure the assignments. There is also a list of resources at the end of this guide. Keep in mind that the format of the assignment can be separate from the content.
