Reflection Paper: I Miss My Family!
You have spent the last couple
weeks learning about some of the aspects of the beginnings of Canada as a
country. Now, put yourself in the shoes of one of the new immigrants. You
may choose to be a soldier, a priest, a nun, a seigneur who owns a
seigneury, a habitant who lives and works on a seigneury, a fur trader, a
young homemaker and mother, a midwife or an entrepreneur. You are writing
a letter home to your family that you left behind in Europe informing them
on how your life has been so far in New France. They miss you and want to
know as much as possible about your new life so don't forget to tell them
about where you live, how you live, who you live with, what you eat, how
you get your food, your spiritual life and anything else that you feel
they should know.
