Defending Quebec:
For Logic Stage kids: Write a letter home or keep a journal for one week describing living in the habitation during the winter of 1628/9.
For Logic Stage kids (or older): What was the treaty called which restored Quebec and Acadia back to France? (hint: it was most likely signed in 1632).
For Logic Stage Kids: Begin the chart "Back and Forth (between the British and French)" to keep track of the possessions handed back and forth during the conflicts in North America. (See template, to be uploaded to a reliable file hosting site)
For Logic stage kids: Compare the voyages of Cabot, Cartier and Champlain using this chart. (To be uploaded to a reliable file hosting site). Construct a venn diagram, if wanted, then write a few sentences comparing the explorers using the data.

Whichever map you choose, you'll have to do a bit of research to locate Cupids. Using an atlas,
1) Find Newfoundland
2) Find the Avalon Peninsula, label it on your map
(what is a peninsula?)
3) Label St. John's
4) Find Trinity Bay and Conception Bay, label them on your map.
5) Find Cupids. It will be south of Harbour Grace and Bay Roberts. (see p. 31 of Heritage Canada or the maps at this B&B site for help if needed).
3) Activities: Map-work (see above).
4) Time-line Figure or image: sketch of John Guy
placement: 1610
5) Supplemental readings: contains a useful map
a whole site devoted to the area.
this site is an amusing account of Newfoundland history. Contains a really useful section explaining the differences between the English method of getting cod ready for transport and the others'. Worth printing out the section for the kids to read. (and then sequence)
Could try Newfoundland, history if wanted.
