Hello everyone,

This week we have found the weather improving and we are quickly approaching the summer break and the last leg of Grade 8.
This week we talked about Siena and their horse race, a relic of the medieval and renaissance period.
We continued our discussion of first contact between the Aztec and the Spanish. We explored the difference between the technology of the two groups and how the Aztecs might have felt seeing boats, horses and cannons for the first time.

Have a great weekend!
