NEW Free Quebec History Unit 5 How Did the Iroquoians Travel in 1500?

 NEW Free Quebec History Unit 5 How Did the Iroquoians Travel in 1500?


Another FREE Quebec History unit for elementary grades 3-4 (cycle 2) is here!

It's time for another history mystery!
In this unit your little historians will discover how the Iroquoians (Haudenosaunee) travelled around the year 1500. This covers several progressions of learning with the content and questions used.

B. Iroquoian Society around 1500
2.3 Economic situation - 
a - names economic activities: agriculture, hunting, fishing, gathering, barter
b - Names means of transportation: canoe; snowshoe
c - Indicates transportation routes: waterways, forest trails


You and your learners will use the QR codes (or links) to read 3 very short paragraphs of information on the website Learn QC.  They can read the information first, then use it to answer the 3 pages of questions. The answers are short and simple and don't require sorting through tons of information.
But they do teach what kids need to know! 

These worksheets are perfect to include in portfolios for end-of-year learning whether you choose a teacher or government portfolio review. Even if you do not complete ALL the units, they are a great way to show the units your child did use and learn about. (remember that the learning units in this series for cycle 2 will cover TWO YEARS of learning)


You'll also find a really fun origami project in this unit! Kids can use the provided templates or their own paper to make an origami canoe! I have provided a wordless youtube video that they can follow along with, or you could choose another one on Youtube (there are plenty!)

After making their boat they can even add in some clay or peg doll figures, and make a map to put beneath it if they'd really like to make a whole project. If they made a longhouse in unit 4, they can add that to their space too - or build one now.


As always they will finish their unit by earning a badge that shows what they learned!

You can download the free unit by clicking on the link under the image below. Please share the link to this blog and NOT the google drive link when sharing, and please do not leave the link open on your computer - this slows down or stops downloads for others. Thank you!
