Dear kids,
Here are some notes about the new historic period we recently started to review. You can also watch the video about Cristóbal Colón arrival to America.
I also include drawings of the book of Frankenstein for those who are waiting to receive their books. We will correct the activities next Thursday (6B) and Friday (6A)
I wish you have a very good weekend. Take care!
THE MODERN AGE: THE AGE OF DISCOVERIES
Vídeo: Cristóbal Colón arrival to America
THE FIRST EXPLORERS:
TWO SPANISH CONQUISTADORS:
The man in armor is Hernán Cortés. This painting represents his first meeting with Moctezuma, an Aztec king from present day Mexico.
Here is Francisco Pizarro. He arrived to Peru in 1532.
Here you can see the areas they conquered. The yellow ones were conquered by Cortés, the red one by Pizarro.
There are few remainings from the Mayans, Aztecs and Incas. These are some pictures of Aztec and Inca temples where they offered sacrifices to their Gods.
The picture that is at the bottom, right is the Macchu Picchu in Peru. It was the most important Inca city.
Next there is a Mayan calendar in stone and some little statues:
Some Aztec pieces:
Inca artwork:
The Inti of Oro (I dedicate this photo to the two students who told me about it 😂)
