Explorers

We are learning about explorers and what they discovered.  We began by looking at the explorers who discovered the continents.  We also discussed the first explorers to make it to the top of Mount Everest and the first man to walk on the moon!

We put the explorers in order on a timeline and we looked at a globe to identify the continents.
