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. They are Prince Henry the Navigator, Ships 1400 to 1600, Sandro Botticelli, and the Medici Patrons of the Renaissance.

The first notebooking page is about Prince Henry The Navigator. It has 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.

PRINCE HENRY NAVIGATOR AND FREE SHIPS NOTEBOOKING

It has 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 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. Renaissance 1300 to 1600 Unit Study and Glassblowing

5 FACTS ABOUT VIKING SHIPS

Let’s learn a few facts first.

Longships were designed for speed- With shallow hulls, they could glide quickly over the water and even travel up rivers.
They were versatile- Vikings used different types of ships: longships for raiding, knarrs for trade, and smaller boats for fishing and everyday use.
Dragon heads on the prow – Some ships had carved dragon or serpent heads at the front to scare away enemies and evil spirits.
Oars and sails- Ships were powered by both oars and large square sails made of wool.
Traveling far and wide – Viking ships allowed them to sail from Scandinavia all the way to North America, centuries before Columbus.

Next, look at these Viking activities.

BUILDING A VIKING SHIP FOR KIDS WHO LOVE HISTORY

You will need:

Large cardboard boxes
Craft knives (for adults only)
Paint and markers
Wooden dowels or sticks
Felt or craft foam for sails

First, draw a long, narrow boat shape with raised ends on sturdy cardboard, you can create a dragon head on end if you like to replicate an authentic figurehead.

At the same time, use something small and round to trace your shields.

Cut everything out and repeat with a second side and more shields using the first as a template.

Paint brown and set aside to dry. Flip and paint the other side, then allow to dry.

Once dry, you can use a black marker to give it lines and swirls to resemble wood.

Fold the bottom 1” of the ship on both sides.

Cut out a long 1” or so strip of cardboard and hot glue it in place over the folds to join them together.

Continue with a strip all the way around to give your ship a full frame and help it stand up. Go up as far as the figurehead, hot gluing it in place on both sides.

Cut oar shapes from cardboard and hot glue to skewers or thin popsicle sticks to make oars.

Paint brown and allow to dry.

Poke through the sides of the ship and secure with hot glue on the inside.

Create the red and white sail by gluing strips of white craft foam onto a piece of red craft foam.

Glue a tall wooden skewer or strip of wood in the center of the ship, you can add extra pieces of cardboard to hold it in place.

Once the glue has dried attach the sail with hot glue.

Finally, paint and glue on the row of shields.

Today’s printables in my series 5 Days of Learning Printables The World of Columbus and Sons Day 2 For Middle and High School are from Part I. When Columbus Was a Boy (1451 – 1474). Also, look at my page homeschool middle school and how to homeschool high school page for more fun tips

Too, the freebies I have today are from Lesson 1. The first minibook is about everyday life in the middle ages.

Besides this first freebie helps your middle or high school student to understand the importance of the English sea ports to everyday life in the middle ages.

In addition, it helps to build a background of things that Columbus would have been familiar with as a boy.

The other two printables are notebooking pages WITH answers thank you.

When I can, you know I always like to include answers because sometimes in high school you just don’t have time to do all the research and need to understand the background information and go on with reading the book.

You decide whether you want the pages to be part of your highschooler’s research or not. The first page is about the fall of Constantinople.

FREE COLUMBUS & SON MINIBOOKS

I found it more enjoyable in going over this with Mr. Senior to help him make the connection to modern day.

Understanding that Constantinople is modern day Istanbul, Turkey and reading some about the modern day city helped him to appreciate the rich history.

It doesn’t stay dry dead boring history when you make a connection to modern day.

The other printable is about Johannes Gutenberg and the printing press which was another contribution during the life of Columbus, which no doubt Columbus would have probably found fascinating.

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.

Fall Nature Crafts & How To Make A Pumpkin Nature Collage

Even older children love to take a break and be creative when the weather is crisp.

Did I mention when you have multiple ages you’re teaching that nature crafts are budget friendly?

Step into your backyard and if you have a park where you’re allowed to take a few leaves that have fallen you have budget friendly materials.

One of my favorite parts of doing this seasonal is that you can create seasonal memories.

HOW TO MAKE A PUMPKIN NATURE COLLAGE

Next, here is another idea to add to your nature crafts and it is a pumpkin nature collage.

First, look at this easy list of supplies.

Cardboard base
Sticks (to form the pumpkin outline)
Leaves, helicopter seeds, or other natural items for filling in the pumpkin
Acorns, bark, or other brown nature items for the stem
A green leaf for beside the stem

Collect nature items.

Go on a nature walk and gather nature items like sticks, leaves, helicopter seeds, acorns, bark, and a green leaf.

Make the pumpkin outline – Arrange sticks on the cardboard in the shape of a pumpkin.

Fill the pumpkin.

Place colorful leaves, helicopter seeds, and other nature treasures inside the outline to fill the pumpkin shape.

Add the stem – Use acorns, bark, or other brown items to create the stem at the top of the pumpkin.

Finish the look – Place a green leaf beside the stem to complete the pumpkin design.

Display & play – Leave the collage on display as a temporary art piece, or take a photo before the items get returned to nature.

10 DEADLIEST CREATURES

This is just a quick list to get you started. You can research your own water or land animals.

Sharks- Sharks can detect a drop of blood in the water from miles away thanks to their incredible sense of smell.
Elephants- Although gentle-looking, elephants kill about 500 people a year by trampling or charging when threatened.
Hippopotamuses- Hippos may look slow, but they can run up to 20 mph on land, faster than most humans.
Tsetse Flies-These tiny flies spread sleeping sickness, a disease that can be fatal if untreated.
Crocodiles- Crocodiles have the strongest bite force of any animal, crushing at over 3,000 pounds per square inch.
Kissing Bugs- Named for biting near people’s mouths while they sleep, these bugs can transmit Chagas disease.
Freshwater Snails- These little snails spread a deadly parasite that causes schistosomiasis, infecting millions worldwide.
Dogs/Wolves- While wolves are naturally cautious of humans, rabies from domestic dogs is responsible for thousands of deaths each year.
Snakes- The inland taipan, also called the “fierce snake,” has venom so potent it could kill 100 people with one bite.
Mosquitoes-The deadliest creature on Earth, mosquitoes kill over 700,000 people annually by spreading diseases like malaria and dengue fever.

Next, look at these deadly creature activities.

DEADLY CREATURE ACTIVITIES

Creating DIY deadly creature trading cards is a fantastic homeschool project that mixes science, art, and creativity.

HOW TO MAKE DIY DEADLY CREATURE TRADING CARDS

Kids not only learn about the dangers and wonders of the natural world, but they also get to design and play with their very own trading card game.

With enough creatures, your child could build an entire deck to rival any store-bought card game—only theirs will be filled with real-world science knowledge

Materials Needed:

Cardstock or index cards
Markers, colored pencils, or paints
Scissors or a paper cutter
optional -Clear trading card sleeves or a small binder to organize the set

First, select a deadly animal, reptile, insect, or sea creature.

Some examples are black mamba, box jellyfish, Komodo dragon, pufferfish, tarantula, etc.

Gather information such as:

Scientific name
Habitat
Deadliness (venom, strength, speed, camouflage, etc.)
Size and weight
Diet
A Fun fact like: The cone snail’s venom is 1,000 times more powerful than morphine.

Cut out your cards any size you like, 3”x4” is a great size for drawing and writing on.

Making a border around the edges of both sides of the card really gives it a nice finish and makes it stand out.

On one side, draw the creature. Start by sketching it out in pencil so you can erase and get it just as you want it.

Then color in with crayons or markers.

Write “Game Stats” just like Pokémon cards, create fun categories such as:

Attack Power
Defense Power
Speed
Danger Level
Special Ability (example-“Neurotoxic Sting” for a scorpion)

Group your deadly creatures by land, sea, mammals, insects, etc…

You can number your cards as you create them. And you can create a new card every time you learn about a new deadly creature and use them to create a new game.
