How did land use change when European settlers came?
Who owned the land our school is on before our schools were built?
How was the land measured and the information recorded?
Many kinds of maps
Where on our school grounds can we see proof of the markers surveyors of today or long ago used?
How has the land changed in the last hundred years?
Which changes helped or were harmful to the environment?
How will knowing this information be useful to us in our families and our lives now and in the future? ____________________
