Explorers term 3

Trinity learned a lot this year about the trials and tribulations that the explorers faced.  She was inquisitive and interested in what they encountered and learned on their journeys.  She was shocked when she learned of the deaths and sickness people faced in their explorations.  The exercise below brought Trinity to the internet, researching the barrens as they are today.  We are both continually amazed at the topical diversity of our country.

Trinity learned about the French and English settlers who were the first to encounter the First nations peoples.  She was disgusted by their greed and inhumane treatment of the First Nations people but also of how the settlers changed the First Nations people.  (Poster seen on June 11 visit)
