But this was not so; for in Mexico there were Aztec Indians, who had fine houses and a well built city. In this city lived little Prince Montezuma.  \nMexico  \nAztec  \nMontezuma  \nMontezuma’s palace was as grand as those in Spain. He dressed in robes of beautiful colors, and wore  \nrings upon his fingers and bracelets upon his wrists, and around his neck were strings of beautiful shells. No boy in the city could shoot an arrow or throw a spear as well as he. And when the boys played at games, he was the most skilful of them all.  \nOn the map above, color Mexico red.  \nThese Aztec people were proud of their prince and of their fine city, Tenochtitlan, with its high walls and its temples studded with pearls and precious stones. The city was built on  \nan island in a great lake. Across the lake were fine bridges. There were so many of them that they looked like the spokes of a great wheel, with the city at the hub.  \nTenochtitlan  \n1. The city of Tenochtitlan was built on a/an  .  \na. island  \nb. mountain  \nc. peninsula  \nd. valley  \nWhen Prince Montezuma was born, he was placed in a little cradle and kept there for three days. Everybody came to look at him and to admire him, but no one except his nurse was allowed to touch him until after the fourth day.  \nOn the fourth day, the little prince was taken up by his nurse and given his first bath, for now he was to have a name.  \nAfter he was bathed and wrapped in a beautiful robe, the nurse  \ncarried him into a great hall in the palace.  \n\"This child shall be called Montezuma,\" the nurse cried in a loud voice. Then three boys, who had been chosen because they had loud voices, shouted three times, \"Montezuma! Montezuma! Montezuma!\" In this way, the little prince was named.  \n2. Montezuma was named on the_____ day.  \na. first  \nb. second  \nc. third  \nd. fourth  \nThe birth of a prince was a great event to the Aztec people; so they made pictures of Montezuma when he lay in his cradle and when he was being named.  \nThey were so pleased with Montezuma, that they went on making pictures of him until he was a warrior grown. On the next page is a picture of the little prince when he was three years old. We know that he was three years old by the three circles. The man in the picture is his father. The halfcircle shows that his father is telling  \nFree Printables for K-12 Education [www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com](www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com)  \nMontezuma that he is now old enough to eat bread; but that he must eat only half a roll. The mother in the picture is showing one of the little princesses her half-roll.  \nNext is a picture of Montezuma's father, and of Montezuma when he was four years old. His father is teaching him to carry a basket so that he may grow to be a useful boy. You see that he is now allowed to eat a whole roll. The little girl, also, is being taught by her mother to do some useful work.  \nHere is still another picture of Montezuma and his father. Montezuma is now five years old. His father is teaching him to carry on his back a heavy weight hanging from his head.  \nThis is to make his muscles grow strong, so that he will hold up his head as a strong lad should. The little princess is now learning to use the spinning wheel.  \n3. What is the little princess learning to use?  \nIn the next picture, Montezuma is seven years old. His father is teaching him to fish with a net; for of course, a prince must never be idle. Then, too, he must know how to do everything that his people know how to do. The princess has learned to use  \nFree Printables for K-12 Education [www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com](www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com)  \nthe spinning wheel, and now each of the children has a roll and a half a day.  \nSometimes Montezuma did not behave very well. Here is a picture of his father threatening the young prince with punishment.","cbCail85YTEzEe3e","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCail85YTEzEe3e","pdf",586835,"English","# Montezuma II\n## The City of Tenochtitlan\n## Naming Montezuma\n## Montezuma’s Childhood Lessons\n## Aztec Picture Stories and Plagues","[{\"question\":\"Why did Europeans initially think the people in the Americas were wild and savage?\",\"answer\":\"They relied on early reports that suggested extreme behavior, but the text states this assumption was not true for Mexico and the Aztec people.\"},{\"question\":\"What feature is used to show that Montezuma was three years old in the picture?\",\"answer\":\"The text says his age is shown by three circles.\"},{\"question\":\"What do the priests explain to Prince Montezuma?\",\"answer\":\"The priests explain temple wall pictures that record what the Aztec people did, including a set of story pictures Montezuma studies.\"}]","Montezuma II - The City of Tenochtitlan Built on an Island - Lesson Workbook | PDF",1792382721,25]
