We had another busy day! The day started with a hike to look for and identify animals and their tracks, which is something the early trappers would've done to find the furs to trade. After that, we rotated through three groups. In the first group, we thought about how those first traders and explorers made a lot of observations, so we, too, made observations and took notes. We enjoyed our peaceful observation times in the River Overlook and Wildlife Viewing Area. In the second group, we pretended to be French voyageurs and everyone had special jobs to perform. In the third group, we reenacted how the Native Americans may have traded goods with the French and the British. The afternoon was spent completing the next part of our timelines, going for a hike along the River Trail and then reading or observing in the Homestead Farm Area. The day just flew by!
