Today, students shared their journals about life in early Mayan-Aztec-Incan society. Then, they did some grammar practice with helping, linking and action verbs. Students read an article about the fall of the early Latin American civilizations and in groups, created a timeline to organize the events that caused the downfall of their particular group of people. Then, they created a poster of this timeline and will teach the class about the events tomorrow.
Students started their diary homework:
Think- what would it be like to be a Mayan-Incan-Aztec as your world was being invaded by European conquistadors? How would you think, feel or react? Write a one-page (minimum) diary entry writing about your feelings about this happening around you.
Homework: Vocab sentences. Finish diary.
