Artifact Assignment
So let's recap the expectations of the assignment.
You are to choose FIVE artifacts from the founding of Quebec in 1608 to the Upper and Lower Canadian rebellions in 1837. These artifacts can represent the Voyageurs, the Filles du Roi, The Battle of the Plains of Abraham, The Battle of Detroit, Sir Isaac Brock, Louis Joseph-Papineau (just to name a few).
You can choose anything of significance.
Remember, the what you're choosing however are artifacts. So these five objects must represent the historical subject you're talking about. What do I mean? Think about it:

- A cannonball could represent an artifact from the War of 1812
- Beaver pelt could represent an artifact from the Voyageurs or Coureur des bois
- A hankerchief could be an artifact representing the tears you cried when you found out a cousin had passed away during the the 7 Years War.
- When you've chosen five strong topics
- You've chosen artifacts that best represent them (e.g., chosing a banana to represent the War of 1812 is a poor choice!)
- That you've accurately described the topic and the history that it represents
- That you've clearly and successfully communicated your ideas
- That you've identified the significance (why is, say, the fur trade something that's important to know in Canadian history?
