Grades 1-4
The students heard the story of Cortez finding Mexico and conquering the Aztecs. They learned about Montezuma and the palace where he lived. We also talked about how the Aztecs worshipped false gods and when the Spaniards conquered the city, they tore down the temples and Catholic priests came and replaced them with churches. We touched on Pizarro and Coronado as well. The last part of class was spent making an Indian headdress.
Franciscans
The Franciscans spent the class learning fun facts about Cortez and the Aztecs. For homework they are to complete the worksheet in their notebook. Also, they need to do their book report for the week.
