  1. Good afternoon, Bronze class.
  2. Welcome to our fourth history lesson off the term, and
  3. today we're going to carry on looking at the explorers
  4. such as Christopher Columbus on Neil Armstrong.
  5. Now, last week, as a recap, we looked at Neil
  6. Armstrong and how he took those first steps on the
  7. movie. Can't remember what he said.
  8. That's right.
  9. That's one small step for man, one giant leap for
  10. mankind. Now he is quite modern day explorers from 1969.
  11. But we are going to go back hundreds of years
  12. again to the fore.
  13. Christopher Columbus and we're going to compare the kinds of
  14. transportacion, the kinds of cars, ships, spaceships.
  15. We're gonna compare what Neil Armstrong used on what Christopher
  16. Columbus used.
  17. So a bit of a comparison history lesson today.
  18. That's the skill that we are working on.
  19. And he is our first few ships, and this is
  20. about Christopher Columbus.
  21. When he sailed over from Spain Ah, nde.
  22. He found that New America's Now remember he waas not
  23. the first person there.
  24. There were already people there, but he discovered them for
  25. Europe and started to bring back some treasures on DSS,
  26. um, minerals on the three chips that he used.
  27. Remember the did not have engines back then.
  28. You couldn't just top it up with petrol.
  29. Turn the key and or where you went across the
  30. sea? No, no, no.
  31. He had to sail.
  32. So using the power off the wind and the first
  33. ship and the biggest ship was called the Santa Maria,
  34. the second ship was called the Pinter.
  35. On the last ship on the smallest ship was called
  36. the Nina the Nina.
  37. So the other three ships that he left Valencia wave.
  38. This is a complete contrast to what Neil Armstrong used.
  39. So even today, even today, 40 50 years later, Neil
  40. Armstrong, this technology would still be really cutting edge.
  41. I mean, you can't just go over the oldie and
  42. reconcile and say, I want about your spaceship.
  43. These things are expensive, and they are impossible to get.
  44. Now, when your adults is a, there's a good chance
  45. that you will be able to save a lot of
  46. money and go to space on holiday.
  47. That's how fast that with technology is moving.
  48. So, Neil Armstrong Well, he used very different kinds of
  49. transportation to their Santa Maria, the Pinter and the Nina
  50. because he wasn't traveling from country to country.
  51. He was actually leaving our earth and going into out
  52. off space, so he needed rocket fuel.
  53. He needed some air or dynamic, nice, powerful spacecrafts to
  54. defy gravity and flied street up to the sky.
  55. So he used mainly Apollo 11, which is this picture
  56. here. So Apollo 11 is on here.
  57. I'll make it a little bit bigger for you.
  58. It's a cylindrical shape that means it's round on its
  59. pointy toe.
  60. Help cook through that sky and room up.
  61. Now you have got one job to these superstars, and
  62. remember, this is an easy one.
  63. I've asked you to write an awful lot this week,
  64. using your class to see.
  65. I would like you to make one off Christopher Columbus's
  66. ships on dhe Apollo 11.
  67. If you don't want to use your plans to see
  68. now, you think that's a little bit too messy.
  69. You can use your coloring pens or pencils to draw
  70. one of Columbus's ships, the Nina, for example, and then
  71. you can use one to draw Apollo 11.
  72. Compare what colors they are.
  73. Compare what they would look like and compare what they
  74. are trying to do on like it says appear.
  75. If you need anything at all anything, please just email
  76. us. If you're running lawn calling bands, you're running lawn
