Columbus Day History
* Christopher Columbus is the Italian explorer who under the Spanish flag discovered the Americas.
* Columbus was a chart maker. Because of this, he became convinced that the world is spherical, round instead of flat. This belief later became the basis for his quest of finding a shorter route to Asia.
* Columbus’s voyage purpose was to find a short trade route to Asia. He was correct in his assumption of the earth being round, but he had no idea there was this large mass of two continents in blocking his path.
The first recorded celebration of Columbus Day in the United States took place on October 12, 1792.
* Organized by The Society of St. Tammany, also known as the Columbian Order, it commemorated the 300th anniversary of Columbus's landing.
* In 1971 Columbus Day was designated as the second Monday in October and is celebrated as a federal holiday.
* In many locations across the country Americans parade in commemoration of the Columbus day.
Free Columbus Day Game
PAPER ARROW: For this activity you need a paper plane. It's better to play this game when it's windless. The players are divided into 2 teams. Draw a line on the ground. The first player who is going to throw the plane stands on it. The player of the second team throws the plane from the place where it landed. He/she throws the plane in the opposite direction. The next player of the first team throws the plane in the opposite direction from the place where it landed. So the players of 2 teams take their turns in throwing the plane in the opposite directions. If after the final throw the plane landed at the line, it means that both teams threw the plane equally. If the plane landed far off the line in the direction in which one of the teams threw the plane, this team wins the game.
