TiBert le Voyageur

The St. James-Assiniboia School Division's Integrated Arts program brought TiBert le Voyageur to our school this month! M. Sorokowski had the pleasure of seeing TiBert at an event before - and he always impresses. This former voyageur shared with 5-21 stories, music, and games. We learned lots about the life of a voyageur, which ties in beautifully with the topics in Grade 5 Social Studies.

Here are many pictures of TiBert's first and second visits to our class. He showed us lots of different objects from the days of the voyageurs. We then played a trading game. We had a BLAST!














Going for a ride! Voyageurs used ceintures fléchées to help them carry heavy items. They could also use them to help move injured voyageurs quickly!
