''French came to America part 2''

The second reason the French

came was to teach Native Americans

how to be Catholics French priests

taught their religion to Native Americans.

Native Americans helped the French in many

ways. They taught the French how to trap animals

for furs. They taught the French how to use canoes

to travel on rivers. They also showed the French how

to make snowshoes. Many parts of New France had

lots of snow in the winter. When they wore snowshoes

the French could walk on very deep snow.
