Voyageurs

After attending our field trip to Fort Langley, we wanted to learn more about the life of a voyageur.  At this website there are a variety of educational games that help show some of the ways of life for these people in the trades.

Have fun!

We have been learning about the differences between similes and metaphors.  Here is a website where students can make their own "Monster Poems" using the figurative language of similes.  Have fun and be creative!
