What teachers like you are saying about Canadian History resources by Creative Classroom Core:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"My students loved this resource! It was easy to use as a teacher and engaging for students. Their conversations with each other quickly became what they would need at their trading post, where they would build it based on available natural resources, how they would trap animals, and what they would trade it for. It helped take history, and make it fun!"
