    Hi Leah, Thank you for your comment and bringing this to our attention. We have removed the word 'discovered' and re-phrased Slide 5 to indicate that Christopher Columbus 'stumbled upon' the Americas. We hope you find this resource useful in the classroom when teaching about the Early Explorers. Kind regards, Victoria.

    Slide 5 needs rewording. Christopher Columbus did not discover 'the Americas'.
