Columbus Day Freebie!

Oct 7, 2013

When I was little we would get Columbus Day off of school and that was always a big treat. It usually fell right on or really close to my birthday. My mom would make it a special day for me.  Our state no longer recognizes Columbus Day as a school holiday, which is a big bummer for me.

I usually try and do a fun project with my kiddos and this has always been one of my favorites!
It is a ship in a bottle!  It is very simple to make and the kids think it is novel.  The trickiest part is the plastic wrap, but I teach them to work together to keep it from getting crumpled.

Also, check out my other Columbus and Explorer products as well.  I love that I can embed so many standards into research projects.
