Christopher Colombus Day (Missing Work) Stephanie

~SORRY! CORRECTIONS!~
1. When did we start celebrating Columbus Day?
-We started celebrating Columbus Day by the Europeans on October 12th 1792, in New York City.
2. Why do we celebrate it?
- We celebrate it because Christopher Columbus was a brave Italian Man. He was a person who kept his word.
3. Should it be a holiday?
- I think it should be a holiday because, Christopher Columbus was a person who was brave, and kept his word, promises. Also he taught us about the pilgrims. REMEMBER: "Columbus sailed the ocean blues in 1492."

WHEN DID WE FIRST CELEBRATE COLUMBUS DAY?
WHY DO WE CELEBRATE COLUMBUS DAY?BECAUSE COLUMBUS WAS THE FIRST EUROPEAN RECOGNIZED BY ROYALTY TO SET FOOT IN AMERICA.
SHOULD WE CELEBRATE COLUMBUS DAY?-OF COURSE, HE WAS THE FIRST SOLO EXPLORER TO SET FOOT IN AMERICA.
