 * Map the voyage. 
 * Using Champlain’s maps draw the route they took from France to St. Croix Island – remember to include the names of these areas and include the names given to them by both First Nations people and Champlain when you can.
 * Using modern maps draw the route they took from France to St. Croix Island.
