On this minibook, there are two pages which are the same except that one has the answers if you want to use this for a younger child or for your middleschooler.

Though I try to list the pages in the book too where the answers can be found through your child’s research, I also give an answer sheet to help if you need it.

The next two notebooking pages, which are City of Granada and Alhambra are for use with Lesson 7, Part III. When Columbus was Sailing From Spain (1492 – 1500).

I do have one more printable I created too after Mr. Senior did his notebook cover on this book.

He drew the States of Italy from one of the hundreds of beautiful drawings in The World of Columbus and Sons, but I had some clip art from one of my paid resources and thought I would create a cover for you. 5 Days of Learning Printables:The World of Columbus and Sons Day 4 For Middle and High School

Of course feel free to use this any way your child wants to.

It can be a notebooking cover or it can be placed in the very front of the notebook because this is the area that Columbus grew up in.

I hope your family enjoys these freebies. Knowing that there are so many topics to cover in this book can make it overwhelming to cover, but I hope your family enjoys the printables and they make it a little more enjoyable to cover as we love these series of books.

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.

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.

5 Days of Learning Printables The World of Columbus and Sons Day 3 For Middle and High School

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

Henry the Navigator

Ships of the 14th to 16th centuries.

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.

The Patrons of the Renaissance-Medici

War of the Roses

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.

History Makers Notebooking Pages – Famous Persons from Ancient to Modern – Set 2

| 2 Comments
This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see my full disclosure policy.

I created the history makers notebooking pages because I don’t use one book or curriculum anymore when teaching homeschool history. Too, look at my page Homeschool Geography for hands-on and simple ideas and tips.

Earlier I shared set 1 of history makers notebooking pages because I do use a variety of reference books when creating unit studies. 

Keeping history lively, eventful and hands-on is my priority right now instead of always focusing on chronological order.

History Makers Notebooking Pages – Famous Persons from Ancient to Modern – Set 2

Teaching about a variety of time periods also allows us to focus on famous people or history makers. 

Because I always like my pages easy and not complicated to figure out, especially for older kids who have a lot of subjects to do anyway, I created this second set the same way as the first set.

History Makers Set 2

Next, look at some of these geography resources.

10 U.S. Geography Resources

If you're looking to teach U.S. geography in a hands-on way, you'll love adding one or two of these resources to your day or study.

Write a few important facts about the time period the person lived in and also write about what events made this person famous. 

These pages can be used for middle school or high school ages.

History Makers Notebooking Pages

Too, I added a box for drawing just in case you had a younger learner or sometimes the time period that the famous history maker lived in lends itself to an invention to illustrate or something to label.

Also, both sets cover a variety of time periods from ancient to modern.

One thing you will notice is that on each page, I have chronological boxes, so that your child can either lightly shade in the box or check the box this famous person lived in. 

It helps when you are covering history in chronological order to be able to see where this person lived in the stream of time.

This way you can coordinate and plan your unit studies too with what I have on my website already.

So that area on the notebooking pages basically helps you in two ways. 

One, it helps you keep your history in chronological order when you do need to cover it that way and two, you can coordinate with the free units on my site.

I hope that all made sense.

Too, hopefully, these will help you to add to your history collection because it covers the more significant history makers in each time period instead of covering every history maker. 

As I say often, sometimes we just need the highlights of history and not every single famous person.

List of 11 History Makers

  • Muhammad Al Pasha
  • Askia Muhammad
  • Nelson Mandela
  • Seretse Khama
  • Hammurabi
  • Mohandas Gandi
  • Confucius
  • Kim Jong II

Today, I have free printable strawberry notebooking pages. Also, you’ll love my free Strawberry Unit Study.

It may not feel like spring yet, but spring is on the way.

Free Printable Strawberry Notebooking Pages

Looking over my strawberry lapbook that we did, which seems like ages ago when my older boys were younger, I wanted to flesh it out some more if I decide to do this with Tiny.

Strawberries are the first “fruits” of spring or are they a fruit? You’ll have to read to learn about them.

Back when we did our lapbook, we also took a field trip with our group to pick strawberries. 

Of course at the end of studying about strawberries, I made strawberry short cake.

It was the perfect ending to our fun, easy and quick unit study about strawberries.

Too, I have some helpful websites and free downloads that will help your child do the notebooking pages on his own.

Strawberry Resources for Kids

First, look at these other strawberry resources to add to your unit study.

11 Strawberry Unit Study Resources & Books

Add one or two of these strawberry unit study resources to make your fun spring unit study come to life.

I never knew there were so many varieties of strawberries.

Go to this page at the University of Texas Digital Library to have your child label the notebooking pages showing the many varieties of strawberries.

Then go this page at the University of Illinois Extension office to read about the history and lore of strawberries.

There are two notebooking pages about the history and lore of strawberries.

Then read here about strawberry leaf disease to fill out the last notebooking page.

Learning about strawberries is a fun way to kick off spring and it certainly got my kids excited about the change to beautiful weather.
