Socials 10-3: Local industries

Link to NFB
Today we started by looking at a local heritage website to gain an insight to some of the traditional "European" economic activity on the Sunshine Coast.  See yesterday's Socials 10-2 post for the link.  We also saw a few short video clips to gain an appreciation of what work in those industries looked like.  We watched an NFB short titled "Red Runs the Fraser," and "Spartree." We also saw the beginning of a documentary on the Allison Logging Co. that showed hand logging with spring boards, crosscut saws and wedges.
