The discovery of America
Nowadays everybody knows what the world “America” means. First of all it is the name of the
country – the United States of America – or just America. And then America is the name of the
two continents – North and South America, form the part of the world called America.
Christopher Columbus discovered America in 1492.
“In fourteen hundred and ninety-two Columbus sailed the ocean blue…”
This is a song that many children learn about Christopher Columbus and his journey to America.
We don’t know much about the man. He was born in Italy but lived in Spain for a long time. He
was a seaman and made many sea voyages. In 1492 the King and the Queen of Spain gave him
money to go to India. He decided to sail west as he was sure that our planet was round. And after
sailing 4000 miles (6400 kilometers), he reached some land. Columbus thought that it must be
India but it was not. It was a new land – a new continent. It was America – Central America in
fact. People began to speak about the land as “the New World”.
In fourteen hundred and ninety-two
Columbus sailed the ocean blue…(Pupils listen to the poem)
Let’s sing together this old song
About the voyage that took him long,
About the sailors, those strong brave men!
Let’s sing and remember them all again!
