Accommodating Diversity:

1. Ask students to complete the scavenger hunt or the reflection orally with you, instead of written.

2.   Display the following vocabulary in the classroom: 

Inuk – one person

      Inuit – more than one person

Archaeological research – the study of human history through the artifacts and sites left behind by past peoples.

Outboard – a motor that is connected to the outside of a boat (an inboard motor is inside the boat)

Primus Stove – a small cooking stove that requires gas (Primus is a company that continues to make camp stoves and lanterns)

Ask students to add any new words to the vocabulary list.

3. For students who need a challenge have them research what was going on in other parts of Canada during Angulalik’s life.  Add more cards to the clothesline indicating other major events that were happening across Canada during and after the boom of the fur trade.  Put these Canadian events in a different colour.  Students should find examples of things taking place in the rest of Canada that interest them.  Some examples could be:

·        1914- World War I

·        1923- Canadian National Railway completed.

·        1939 –World War II

·        1949 – Newfoundland joins confederation.

·        1967 – Expo celebrated in Montreal.  Canada is 100 years young.

4.   Ask the students to make a diorama of the Perry River Trading Post.  Red Pederson of the HBC describes all of the buildings on the website including the store, oil shed, warehouse, and Angulalik’s house.
