This past week we had the privilege of hosting Mr. Frederick Carsted, who taught us about the soldiers that fought in the Seven Years' War.  Students were very engaged and had lots of questions!

Mr. Carsted is demonstrating how soldiers fought in rows and had to be in order for the safety of the soldiers in front!
How many items can you identify on Mr. Carsted's uniform?

Students are working on videos that describe life on a seigneury in Nouvelle France - they will be put up on the blog by the end of this next week.
