  10. This is the taste! The cocoa beans were used to make a thick chocolate drink, but far different than the hot chocolate we know today. Since they didn't use sugar, the Mexicas added peppers, corn meal and spices. A similar hot drink is still found in Mexico today with corn, known as atole. The word chocolate even comes from an Aztec/Mayan word chocolatl.Chocolate actually may have played a part in the fall of the Aztec empire.

  12. Calmecac schools • Children of the noble class attended a calmecac, a school for noble children that was attached to the temples. Girls and boys went to separate calmecac schools. The children learned to live prudently, to govern, and to understand the history and ways of their elders, under strict priestly want to learn more?

  13. telpochcalli schools The Macehualtin (literally "workers": trades people, peasants, and builders) children attended a local school, called telpochcalli. There they were taught basic skills, the elements of warfare, and good citizenship. Some Macehualtin children who were bright were sent to a calmecac.

  14. Learn more about school. • At fifteen (15), boys attended either a calmecac or a cuicacalli. The calmecac was run by priests who taught religious. Calmecac pupils also had extra religious duties, as well as lessons in history, astronomy, poetry, and writing. The cuicacalli was more of a military school. All boys were trained in war and there was great rivalry between the schools, often leading to fights. Aztec girls were mainly taught at home and began spinning at four (4) and cooking at twelve (12). Their education was basically a training for marriage, although noble girls spent a year at twelve (12) or thirteen (13) helping in the temple, and some became professional priestesses.
