Welcome to your 121st day of school!
"Give a man a fish and you'll feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you'll feed him for a lifetime."
-Chinese Proverb
TO DO
1. Let's learn a little more about the Aztec Empire by studying their culture. The Field Museum of Chicago has a fantastic site detailing the various aspects of Aztec culture, so we are going to use that resource to expand our knowledge. Click here to access the instructions/questions for today's lesson.
-REMEMBER: Pay close attention to the instructions, you'll be doing a lot of clicking today!
2. If you have any time left after you get done exploring, I've found some websites that give some "professional" viewpoints on the 2012 phenomenon (since so many of you have had questions about it). As I've said, there is no way to predict the future, but some people put a lot of weight behind the theory. Having said that, there are also many people who do not believe it at all. Either way, enjoy.
