Discover the challenges your settlement group faced in early Canada.
- Choose a challenge like finding food or transportation or building a home.
- Find facts from The Kids' Site of Canadian Settlement and primary sources that tell something about your challenge.
- Then draw a conclusion about the challenge (e.g.: The group ate a lot of different kinds of foods).
See how many challenges you can complete. If you need more pyramids you can draw them yourself on another sheet of paper.
