Our class inspiration Our class would like to share the information that we found on early American Explorers, in hopes that it will help you in your own explorer research. Explorers are very important. If explorers never found America, what do you think would have happened? You probably wouldn’t even be where you are. Explorers have made a huge difference on this world. Without Jacques Cartier, Canada wouldn’t be named Canada! Without Ferdinand Magellan, the Pacific Ocean wouldn’t be called the Pacific Ocean. It might be called the Atlantic Ocean! Without Marco Polo, what game would you play at your friends pool party? Also, many explorers see strange animals or objects that they write about, and scientists continue this research. When Marco Polo was traveling across Asia, he wrote about all the sights he saw in his journal. The stories that were in his journal, then turned into a book. This book then helped many other explorers find there ways around Asia. Therefore, explorers are very important.
