Let’s know more about Christopher Columbus!
Christopher Columbus was an Italian coloniser, explorer and navigator. In 1492, he set off from Spain in the Santa Maria, followed by the Pinta and Nia ships, in search of a new passage to India. He is regarded as the main European explorer of the Americas and was instrumental in raising awareness of the continent in the West. He conducted a total of four expeditions to the Caribbean and South America between 1492 and 1504, and his opening up of the Americas to European colonisation has been both hailed and condemned.

I have a completely new respect for Columbus after researching for this unit. We may credit him with something he doesn’t deserve, but he deserves so much credit in other areas! I am now so excited to teach my kids the truth about Columbus!

There is no way I can fit even half of the important facts and info about a person in a unit. So, before starting the unit, go to the library and find a book on Columbus that is age appropriate for your child. We love the Who Was…series, and the Who Was Christopher Columbus book is no exception. It’s thorough, interesting, and factual, yet it doesn’t dumb it down. I’ve read a few of them now and find them to be great for Baloo (age 7).
