Share evidence of influence.
- Discuss, as a class, students' major findings. Invite teams to add to their list of evidence on Colonizing Effects. Once students have identified many of the colonizing influences of each of the two groups, ask each team to rate each group's relative influence. Explain the scale to the class and ask each team to record its rating for each indicator.
Pose the critical question.
- Pose the critical question:
Did traders or missionaries have a greater impact on colonization
in New France before 1663?
Ask teams to compare the colonial influence of traders and missionaries on Influential Colonizers and give reasons for their decision.
Share conclusions.
- When each team has completed the task, invite students to share their conclusions with a partner, in a small group or in a whole class discussion.
