My Glossary : http://historyanne.wikispaces.com/History+Glossary
Today we did a game about a shipwreck and we worked on our glossary.
This game was a game where you had to find hints on a shipwreck that happened in the St-Lawrence River.

You can play the game Here : http://uneepaveraconte.net/english/intro.htm



I finished the game but instead of saving the picture I clicked Finish game, so I lost the picture, I tried to Print the screen but it didn't work, Brian told me to click save page as, but when I tried to upload the image it said there was an error. I just clicked back on the end of my gme and me restart all over again. But you can ask Brian I actually finished the game.
