Red Island Heritage-First-Person Accounts
Students can use this link to read first-person accounts of visitors to the French fishing settlement at Red Bay in the period of 1859-1904. Use the site to discuss with students the importance of primary sources and how they may reveal information that otherwise might not have survived to the present.
This Web page provides additional information about the history of the Viking expeditions to North America. Other pages on the site include information about the archaeological discoveries at L'Anse aux Meadows and what these discoveries have revealed about the Vikings. Use the site to extend the information about Vikings in the student book.

Flow Chart and Role Play |
|
Student flow charts will vary, but might be similar to the following The Vikings in North America Box 1. Leif and his crew land somewhere along the coast of North America and decide to stay. Box 2. Early the next summer they return to Greenland. Box 3. Thorfinn Karlsefni came with settlers, explored the area, and collected cargo to sell back home. Box 4. The Vikings had disagreements with the Skraelings and returned home. When evaluating student role plays, observe whether students combine some historical fact with appropriate imaginative details to bring the scene to life.
