Act-It-Out: New France

Sept. 20th, 2006

We are currently learning about how European countries claimed and settled lands in the "New World." We have been creating "act-it-outs" to help us better understand what the settlers and Native Americans went through.

In the New France "act-it-out", students were chosen to portray French fur trappers settling in what's now Canada, Huron Indians (allies of the French), or Iriquois Indians (enemies of the French and Huron).
