Monday in class students made drawings showing the cultural interactions between First Americans and Europeans. They used their note sheet from Thursday to complete their drawings. The drawings must be completed by Tuesday so that each student can participate in the walk and talk (sharing of drawings with classmates).

Wednesday we will have a quiz on Exploration that will cover:

Portuguese trade with Ghana, Mali and Songhai

• What was traded
• Who traded what
• The time period that this happened
• The location of the Niger River and Sahara Desert in Africa.

Cultural Interaction between First Americans and European Explorers

• How the French, Spanish and English interacted with First Americans
• Areas of conflict (land, competition for trade, cultural differences, language and disease) and cooperation (technology, trade, crops) between First Americans and Europeans
