This video worksheet allows students to learn about the fur trade’s role in developing Canada. The worksheet helps students understand the impact the fur trade had in shaping the modern world. The video is great for visual learners and helps break up class time so students are more focused throughout the entire period. My students love these short engaging videos and have a better understanding of history.
