Lesson Plan:
- Play the CRB's Heritage Minute "Sirop." Tell the students
to pay very careful attention to the interaction between the people, as
they will be discussing the video in detail. You may want to tell
them to think about answering the questions who, what , where, when, why
and how as a guideline for their observations. You might also suggest
that they jot notes down if that will help them. You may want to
play the video a couple of times for best results.
- Divide the class into groups of three. Have the groups create
mind maps of what they saw and what they have learned so far in this unit
about New France.
- While students are working on their mind maps, have some groups take
turns on the computer completing the handout "One Woman's Role in
French-Native Relations".
- Summarize the lesson by discussing how both Native and French People
taught and helped each other.
Evaluation Opportunities:
- teacher evaluation of mind maps
- teacher and/or student evaluation of student worksheet
