Mercantilism/Triangular Trade Game
By TxMAP Teacher
This product is intended to demonstrate how Triangular Trade worked in the the 17th and 18th centuries.
Materials Included:
- Country Profile Sheets
- Colony Profile Sheets
- Raw Material Cards
- Instruction sheet
Teaching Strategy:
- Note: Students should have been introduced to information on Triangular Trade and Mercantilism preceding this activity.
- Divide the class into teams of 6
- Give each group a Country Profile Sheet - have students read the information for their country
- Students will then be given their colony - this can be done randomly or strategically. - It is often more impactful to the lesson to have groups actually go out and “explore’ their colony. I have given students numbers and then put colonies around the room with only numbers attached to them.
- The colony envelope should include the colony profile and the appropriate amount of raw material cards.
- When all groups have their colonies and have read all things about their country and colony then they should form a strategy for trading to get their necessary resources.
- Groups will then start trading with other groups to get the resources they need.
- Leave time to debrief and possibly play again.
- Adjust rules as you see the need.

In Task 1 students will read an informational text about World War I and the Treaty of Versailles and then find their way through a maze by answering true or false comprehension questions. If they answer the questions correctly they will reveal their first word.
In Task 2 students will use the same informational text to complete a crossword puzzle. Within the puzzle there are several hidden letters which will need to be unscrambled on the completion of the puzzle to reveal the second word.
In Task 3 students will have to cut out 27 timeline task cards before putting them in order from the earliest date to the most recent. When they have finished their task they can glue them onto the answer key which will reveal their third word.
In Task 4 students will have to find the missing words in a wordsearch puzzle before finding a hidden word from the letters that are left over in the puzzle. This hidden word is their fourth and final word.
Students can then complete their student answer key with the four words they revealed before checking with the teacher to see if they have escaped successfully.
