Artistic Aztecs in Fifth Class!

Ms. Lennon’s class were learning about all elements of the Aztecs. For example, they learned that girls married at the age of fourteen, whilst boys married at the age of nineteen. The Aztecs ate a lot of cheese. Also, they had two gods for most things, for example, they had two war gods so one could sleep and one could work.

Ms. Lennon’s class also made some Aztec art such as sun stones from clay. Next the class will make some mosaic masks.
