Choose one of the following activities and bring to class to share.
1) In a few paragraphs, write significant highlights of Henry Hudson's adventures. As you near the end of the tale, rather than explain what we know (or don't know), "finish" the story using your imagination to explain his fate. (Write this part in a different color ink.) Then, switch ink colors again and write still another possibility. And then once more, with another color, write one last possibility of what happened to Henry Hudson.
2) Visit the library or use the internet with a parent's help to read more about the lives, customs, and history of the Huron (or Wyandot) Indians. Because written reports sometimes interfere with the pure pleasure of reading and learning, do NOT WRITE a report. Instead, read and learn, but prepare to orally articulate the most interesting things you learned about these Indians. You may use note cards or visual aids to prompt your memory. Any notes you make should be short trigger words or phrases that are your own.
No further lesson is assigned, as I was thinking in class that today was Tuesday, so only work to give excellent effort and attention on one of the above choices.
