Today I learned that the First Nations people hunted lots at a really cold temperature of  minus 40 with the wind shield.
I also learned that beavers made the best hats.

Today I learned that surviving back then was difficult if you did not have the right skill set and knowledge. I also learned that fur trading involved a LOT of effort and work, but it was worth it because it let you survive the cold winter. The last thing that i'm gonna say is that the snow was very deep which made it harder to survive. (it was 5 feet!)

# data[].attributes.body
One question I still have is haw did they build homes when they did not have hammers, building glue, or even any tools at all.Also did they make doors? one thing that I really want to know is did they have up stairs rooms in some houses or did they just make one level homes?

How many First Nations Peoples died during the cold winters?

# data[].attributes.body
when me, Panos and Luka had bought so pretty good stuff to survive and before I heard that the first nations were friends with European Explorers. Are they still friends?

# data[].attributes.body
Today I learned that fur was important during winters, but it was also important not to hunt, because animals grew bigger coats of fur during the winter and if people wanted big fur coats they would have to wait.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I learned that First Nations winters were very cold and snowy. They had 5 feet of snow also the ice was 3-2 feet deep! Most First Nations would die during the winter because of how cold it was.I also learned that if you weren't nice to the banker they could not give you all the money you could have gotten.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I found out that first nations were hard thinkers.I know that because I got a little experince. When I was there I bought frozen peas I did not think about how to cook it so if it was real I would have died.Since the first nations survived they must have thought a lot .

Today I learned that when hunting for animal it is better to use a trapper than a rifle.Its better to use a trapper because when you use a trapper,when the animal walks it just traps its leg,but when you use a rifle and shoot the animal you will get the fur but the fur will have holes in it because of the rifle which means people will get less money for the fur .So a way to just get more money is just to use a trapper instead of a rifle.I also learned that when you go to the bank or the trading post you always have to be nice and respect them just be polite.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I learned that when hunting for animal it is better to use a trapper than a rifle. YES! Its better to use a trapper because when you use a trapper, when the animal walks it just traps its leg, but when you use a rifle and shoot the animal you will get the fur but the fur will have holes in it because of the rifle which means people will get less money for the fur .So a way to just get more money is just to use a trapper instead of a rifle. First Nations People had to think strategically to make the most money.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I learned that if you want to trade something or go to the bank you must be kind to the banker, so they can give the right amount. For example, if you won't to get  money from the bank and you just yell at them like give me your money or something like that they won't give you the full amount of what you traded in for the fur.

Yes. First Nations People tried to develop kind relationships with others to make trading easier and friendlier.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I learned that fur trade is very confusing because the banker and shop owner can give you extra money and give you less money than wath you were suppose to get and you have to keep looking at the prices so they don't take advantage of you and something else that is confusing wen they give you a map and you follow the direcations there

I enjoyed playing banker and developing relationships withe the First Nations Peoples that I traded with,.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that when the European explorers arrived, they weren't ready  for all the snow and cold weather. The European explorers traded pelts, clothing, food, metal goods, and lots of other essential needs (it was also very fun trading items and pelts at Jack Smythe!). They needed all these things to be able to live in the cold weather in Canada. Also, another thing I learned was that the taller the hat, the wealthier you are. This means people would trade with you because you are "rich" and have all the goods. The Europeans had to also develop a relationship with the first nations peoples so they would not be afraid of the Europeans.

To me the best and funnest part at Jack Smythe was the fur trading. It was fun going to collect information, trading them for money, then purchasing all the essential needs to live. (not finished yet)

My favourite part is purchase and trading also collecting information

# data[].attributes.body
To me the best and funnest part at Jack Smythe was the fur trading. It was fun going to collect information, trading them for money, then purchasing all the essential needs to live. It's also pretty challenging because you have to be polite or else the traders will turn down on you or they wouldn't give you the right amount of  money.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that its not as good to use a trapper than a rifle because if you use a rifle it leaves lots of holes and people don't want holes in there fur so if you use a trapper it will trap the animal and not leave holes also if you have holes in your fur you will not get that much money.

# data[].attributes.body
one question I have is when there was 5 or 3 feet snow how would they get out and hunt for animals?

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that the  first nations people would have to go out and hunt for animals in 40 deegeres which is an average weather back then and in 3-5 feet snow they would have to trade fur for good needs.when we were looking for the  "animals" we werent looking for them for real.But back then it would take even longer for them to look or trap the real animal.Also we had a trail and as long as we were in between the flags on trees we were allowed to go there.For the first nations people they didnt have trails to tell them were to go ,they would just have to find them and if they got lost they got lost and they would have to find there way back home which might take a long time.

# data[].attributes.body
if there were five feet of snow how would they get around to hunt for animals?

# data[].attributes.body
one thing i learned about the first nations people that they they had to go out hunt for as mush as animals as they can then they would have to go to the bank be very polite and get money then they have to go to the store and get food and all other stuff to live .

# data[].attributes.body
what I learned about Europeans I learned that the  Europeans wore hats it was called a beaver hat and I learned that the taller your hat was the more
'rich" you were and so people would trade would you more.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved going to the bank and trading post,but my FAVOURITE part was obviously going in to the forest and finding the animals.This was probably the best feild trip ever it was so educational but also very fun at the same time!

# data[].attributes.body
a thing i learned about the European  explorers is that the taller the hat the more money you have and more people want to trade with you.

# data[].attributes.body
my favourite part of the WHOLE field trip was going in the forest with Meeral and looking for all the animal furs!
