6 Teacher s Note: Obviously these routes are approximate and done to the best of my ability with a mouse & cursor. I like to have my students use color families for the countries & explorers like I used here. However, you can also use dash/dot patterns to help better distinguish the routes. Sometimes it also helps to write the explorer s name along the route if enough colors are not available.

7 Directions: Cut out the books below and paste them into your notebook so that you can flip them up. Select 4 different European explorers (preferably 1 from each country Spain, Portugal, England, & France) and write their names on the front covers. Then research about each and on the back of the page and notebook underneath, describe their journey of exploration. Try to include pictures of what they might have seen and try to imagine what they might have been thinking and feeling at the time. Glue Glue Glue Glue

9 Directions: Following a rebirth in science and learning during the European Renaissance, new developments helped aid exploration. These included faster ships with a new type of sail called a lateen sail. Additionally, the invention of the astrolabe and improvements to a much older Chinese invention the compass helped explorers more accurately determine their location at sea. Cut out the graphic organizer below and glue into your notebook. Under each flap, draw a picture of the invention and then describe what it did. In the center, explain how all of these helped European exploration. Bonus: you can also turn your completed folded triangle into a lateen sail by drawing a ship below it! Glue down here and fold each side of the triangle so the words are visible.
