Today’s printables in my series 5 Days of Learning Printables: The World of Columbus and Sons Day 3 For Middle and High School are from Part I. When Columbus Was a Boy (1451 – 1474), Lesson 2. Also, look at my page homeschool middle school and how to homeschool high school page for more fun tips
I have 5 printables which are 3 sets of notebooking pages and 2 minibooks.
The first notebooking page is about Prince Henry The Navigator along with a map of some of the areas Columbus would have been familiar with as a boy.

Too, Columbus had a fascination as a boy with the ships of the time. So the next notebooking pages is to tell a bit about the ships of the middle ages.

Then the next set of notebooking pages is about Sandro Botticelli and it is a 5 page download.
These notebooking pages are one of the reasons we loved this series of books because other topics like art are added in to enrich the understanding and background of the life of Columbus.
Art of that time period or Italian Renaissance Art is something no doubt Columbus would have appreciated or in the very least have been acquainted with.
You can’t hardly study this time period without taking time to study the art of that time period or famous artist of the time and Sandro Botticelli was one we focused on.

Then next the Medici Family is one that Mr. Senior 2013 fixated on too. Too, Netflix use to have The Age of the Medici on for free, but it looks like it is now a rental.
But Mr. Senior 2013 watched the film about the “godfathers” (Medici Family) of the Renaissance and understanding how they fostered a love of science and art in that time period, he found fascinating.
I created a minibook about Cosimo and Lorenzo Medici.

And then lastly, I have a minibook that builds some background information about the War of Roses, which was a series of wars for the throne of England fought between two houses, the houses Lancaster and York.
I think it’s easier introducing this topic too through the life of Columbus since it’s a lot to take in during this time period.

Remember, that for most all of the notebooking pages and minibooks, I have provided the answers to help save you some time too.
And don’t forget I have a huge Renaissance Unit Study and Glass Blowing Unit Study that will enhance your study of The World of Columbus and Sons.
