The Columbian ExchangePositive and Negative Effects

Columbian Exchange Activity

• Print slides• Put them up around the room• Have students take double-sided worksheet

around and fill in as they read about impact of the following items on Americans and Europeans

The impact of Olives...

Olives came from Europe. Cooking, oil, a good snack. Olives are delicious!

Positive effect; good food!

Impact of the Onion...

Onions came from Europe. Rich in antioxidants, thought to prevent cancer, diabetes, and even the common cold, onions are nothing if not a superfood. But that’s not all they are — the same properties that make onions a great food to eat also make them great for other things, from healing your skin to cleaning metal.

Positive effect; good food!

Positive effect; spices, antioxidants good for skin/health

Impact of the Onion...

Onions came from Europe. Rich in antioxidants, thought to prevent cancer, diabetes, and even the common cold, onions are nothing if not a superfood. But that’s not all they are — the same properties that make onions a great food to eat also make them great for other things, from healing your skin to cleaning metal.

The impact of citrus fruits and grapes

Citrus fruits originated in Southeast Asia. All kinds of fruits, from lemons to oranges, are great for juices and just to snack on. Also fragrant sprays for the house. Even flavored vodka and rum.

Impact of Bananas, Pears and Peaches

Apples were brought to North America in the early 1600's. The first apple orchard was established in Boston in 1625. What would the world be like without bananas, peaches, and pears, or even apples? So sweet, for pies, and just great for snacks!

Bananas were brought to the Americas and are now a main export crop.

Impact of Sugar Cane

Sugar was brought over to America. Sugar was the most important cash crop for export in the 1600's to the 1900's. Sadly, the worldwide demand for sugar led to the slave trade for workers to work on sugar plantations.

Impact of Coffee Bean...

Coffee was discovered by monks in Ethiopia. It quickly became a great drink and was exported to Europe, where intellectuals sat in coffee houses and debated. It made its way with Columbus to the New World and became a plantation cash crop in Central and South America.

Impact of the Honey Bee

Bees came from Asia. They make honey in their combs. But their real significance is that 40% of the world's food supply -- including apples, tomatoes, and strawberries -- is dependent on pollination by honeybees. Without bees, we would have a food supply collapse.

Impact of Wheat, Rice, Barley, Oats

Wheat/Barley-beer, cereal, flour, breadRice-milk, paper, food, Oats-cereal, Cheerios, food for horses

Wheat

Barley

Rice

Oats

Impact of Cattle, Pig, Sheep, HorseAll these animals were domesticated in Europe and brought to

the Americas by colonists. Animals provide protein; skins for warmth, milk from cows which increases human size, meat. Horses provide labor to pull plows and made it easy for humans to farm and eventually grow more food, hence more people.

Impact of TobaccoEuropeans found natives smoking tobacco upon

the arrival of Columbus. In large doses, it acts as a hallucinogenic. American farmers used slave labor to farm huge plantations. Tobacco made plantation owners rich.

"It was believed that tobacco was a gift from the Creator and that the exhaled tobacco smoke was capable of carrying one's thoughts and prayers to heaven."

Impact of Turkey

The Turkey is native to the forests of North America. It was brought to England in 1550. Turkey's are a delicious food. In 1621, the Pilgrims celebrated their first Thanksgiving of the bountiful harvest the lord provided them. They ate corn, squash, and a wild turkey.

Impact of QuinineQuinine is an anti-malaria drug. Malaria was

responsible for the death of many popes, and other Roman citizens. Quinine was the first effective treatment for Malaria. Without quinine, whites may not have been able to colonize Africa and South America.

Impact of Squash/Pumpkin

Squash was first cultivated in the Americas around 8,000 years ago. Squash vines are thick and limit weeds. Pumpkins are great as pies and of course we use the Pumpkin as a halloween decoration to scare away evil spirits!

Impact of Pineapple

The English discovered this fruit in the Americas and, because it looked like a "pine" cone, named them pine apples. They are so delicious that some churches put them on the preachers pulpit as decoration!

Impact of Peanuts

The peanut was domesticated in South America over 8,000 years ago. Spanish traders took them back to Europe. Today we have peanut butter and all sorts of nut products.

Impact of Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes

Potatoes came from Peru and Bolivia in South America around 7,000-10,000 years ago. The global average eaten is 73 lbs per person. Potatoes are cheap and plentiful. French fries are one of the great potato inventions!

Impact of Peppers and Tomatoes

Peppers came from South America. They are used in salads and asspices especially in Mexican food!

Tomatoes origiated in the Americas. Salsa, Ketchup, tomato sauce are just a few delicious items made from tomatoes.

Impact of Casava

Casava is a plant native to the Americas from around 6,600 BCE. We get tapioca from Casava. Today it feeds over 500 million people. Nigeria is the world's largest producer of Casava. It grows well in the tropics.

Impact of Corn

Corn is perhaps the greatest discovery from the Columbian Exchange. Originating from Aztecs and Mayans around 2500 BCE. From corn we get syrup, flakes, oil, butter, gasoline for cars. Over 4200 uses for corn products today.

Impact of Vanilla and Cacao (Chocolate)

Cacao originated in the Amazon near Venezuela. From Cacao we get Chocolate. Vanilla originated in Mexico due to a special bee that pollinated the vanilla plant. Vanilla was sent as tribute by conquered tribes to the

Aztecs.

Impact of Beans

Beans are legumes that are the oldest cultivated plant known to man. They were simultaneously farmed in South Asia and the Americas. Columbus noted beans growing wild in the Bahamas. There are currently over 40,000 bean varieties. They are an important source of protein.
