Columbus Day




In art class with Mrs. Baer, we made a watercolor ocean and origami boats to celebrate Columbus Day. We also learned a song to help us remember who he is and when he sailed to the "New World". 

(Sung to the tune of "The Farmer in the Dell")
Written by unknown

In 1492
In 1492
Columbus sailed across the sea
In 1492

For 70 days he sailed
For 70 days he sailed
Columbus sailed across the sea
For 70 days he sailed

He came to a new land
He came to a new land
Columbus sailed across the sea
And came to a new land

Exploring he did go
Exploring he did go
Columbus sailed across the sea
Exploring he did go

He sailed back home to Spain
He sailed back home to Spain
Columbus sailed across the sea 
Then sailed back home to Spain
