Awesome Aztec Activity Station
Directions: The Aztecs need a pyramid to offer their sacrifices to each god. It is your job to build and decorate a pyramid with the things that
represent an Aztec god.
Every side of the pyramid must be colored and have at least 1 picture per side. You may create a pyramid for: A). Sun god or
B). Warrior god
The ancient Aztecs believed in many gods and goddesses. Each god had a job to do. The sun god, for example, brought the sun up every day. The
Aztecs believed it was important to keep the sun god happy. They truly believed if the sun god was not happy, he would refuse to bring up the sun,
and the world would end. The Aztecs believed that human sacrifice was necessary. They used people to feed their hungry gods. Some of the people
sacrificed were Aztecs. But most of the people they sacrificed to keep their gods happy were people captured from neighboring tribes. This did not
make them popular with their neighbors!
Sun god
****Use the pyramid template to create your pyramid. Use scissors and glue at station.
