Comparison of Manitoba’s and Saskatchewan’s Curriculum

I compared the grade 10 Science curriculum’s of Saskatchewan and Manitoba. I found Manitoba’s curriculum hard to find in the beginning, and once I did find it, it was split into multiple PDF’s that I had to download individually to read through. The overall documents were not as in depth or visually appealing though they did contain more diagrams and tables. The site was much more difficult to navigate in comparison to Saskatchewan. I could not find any broad areas of learning or cross curricular learnings similar to that of Saskatchewan. These results may be altered due to myself navigating and used to Saskatchewan’s site in comparison to Manitoba’s. Additionally, Manitoba’s grade 10 science curriculum comes last updated in 2003, as compared to Saskatchewan’s updated curriculum in 2016.
