Ancient & Medieval America Readings & Checkpoints
Over the course of the unit, we will be going through different sections of the textbook in class. Whenever we start a reading, the questions will be due the next day and there will be a reading checkpoint made available after school for homework (unless there are other instructions). The Google Forms online correspond to a specific topic/lesson in the textbook.
The Aztecs
A few hundred years after Mayan civilization flourished, a new power emerged in central Mexico. In this section, you will learn about the Aztec empire and its civilization.
The Aztecs DBQ Documents
In the 1400s and early 1500s, the Aztecs dominated the region around modern-day Mexico City. At their peak, they controlled the lives of some ten to 20 million people. Not always well loved by other groups in the area, the Aztecs created a society that surprised and impressed the Spanish conquistadors who arrived in 1519. The purpose of this DBQ is to examine parts of Aztec society and decide what we should emphasize when telling the Aztec's story.
