The TCI ApproachThe TCI Approach consists of a series of instructionalpractices that allow students of all abilities to experiencekey social studies concepts.THEORY-BASED ACTIVE INSTRUCTIONSTANDARDS-BASED CONTENTDynamic lessons build mastery of state and national social studies standards. Integrates hands-onactive learning, achieving a consistent pattern of high-quality social studies instruction while beingmindful of standards.PREVIEW ASSIGNMENTA short, engaging assignment at the start of each lesson helps you preview key concepts and tapstudents’ prior knowledge and personal experience.MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE TEACHING STRATEGIESCONSIDERATE TEXTCarefully structured reading materials enable students at all levels to understand what they read.Recognizes that a successful reading of expository text involves four stages: previewing the content,reading, taking notes, and processing the content, or reviewing and applying what has been learned.GRAPHICALLY ORGANIZED READING NOTESComprehensive graphic organizers, used to record key ideas, further help students obtain meaningfrom what they read. Graphic organizers help students see the underlying logic and interconnectionsamong concepts by improving their comprehension and retention in the subject area.PROCESSING ASSIGNMENTAn end-of-lesson Processing assignment, involving multiple intelligences and higher-order thinkingskills, challenges students to apply what they learned. It helps students to synthesize and apply theinformation they have learned in a variety of creative ways.MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE ASSESSMENTCarefully designed tests encourage students to use their various intelligences to demonstrate theirunderstanding of key concepts while preparing them for standardized tests.6 History Alive! The Medieval World and Beyond

T H E O R Y- B A S E D A C T I V E I N S T R U C T I O NLessons and activities are based on three well-established theories:Multiple Intelligences According to Howard Gardner’s revolutionary theory, every student isintelligent—just not in the same way. Because everyone learns in a different way, the bestactivities tap more than one kind of intelligence. Gardner has described these seven intelligences: verbal-linguistic, logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, body-kinesthetic, musical-rhythmic,interpersonal, and intrapersonal.Cooperative Interaction Elizabeth Cohen’s research has led her to conclude that cooperativegroupwork leads to learning gains and to higher student achievement. Cohen has found that ifstudents are trained in cooperative behaviors, placed in mixed-ability groups, and assigned rolesto complete during a multiple-ability task, they tend to interact more equally. This increasedstudent interaction leads to more learning and greater content retention.Spiral Curriculum Educational theorist Jerome Bruner championed the idea of the spiralcurriculum, in which students learn progressively more difficult concepts through a process ofstep-by-step discovery. With this approach, all students can learn once a teacher has shownthem how to think and discover knowledge for themselves.M U LT I P L E I N T E L L I G E N C E T E AC H I N G S T R AT E G I E SMultiple Intelligence Teaching Strategies incorporate six types of activities:Visual DiscoveryStudents view, touch, interpret, and bring to life compelling images, turning what is usuallya passive, teacher-centered activity—lecturing—into a dynamic, participative experience.Social Studies Skill BuilderThis strategy turns the traditional, rote tasks usually associated with skill-based worksheetsinto more dynamic, interactive activities.Experiential ExerciseThese short, memorable activities make abstract ideas or remote events accessible andmeaningful by tapping into intrapersonal and body-kinesthetic intelligences.Writing for UnderstandingWriting for Understanding activities give all learners, even those with lesser linguistic skills,something memorable to write about.Response GroupsThis strategy helps students grapple with the ambiguities of issues in social studies, recognizethe complexity of historical events, and discuss the consequences of public policies.Problem Solving GroupworkThis strategy teaches students the skills necessary to work together successfully in smallgroups, both in the classroom and later in life.History Alive!

Lesson25PreviewProject Transparency 25: The Great Market of Tenochtitlan andhave students work in pairs to complete Preview 25 in their InteractiveStudent Notebooks. Review the directions with them. Afterward, havevolunteers share their answers to the three questions, particularly theirhypotheses about the daily lives of the Aztecs.Graphic Organizer1 Have students read Section 25.1 in History Alive! TheMedieval World and Beyond. Review the boldfaced key terms with them.Have students identify what they think they will learn about in this chapter. (Note: You may want to have students use the Prereading Handout inLesson Guide 1 to conduct a prereading of the chapter. [Not required forsample lesson. The Prereading Handout is one of the ways this programsupports students in reading expository text.])2 Introduce the graphic organizer. Have students examine the illustration in Section 25.1. Ask, What does this look like? How might thisbasket be used in a market like the one you saw in the transparency?What items from the image of the marketplace might you place in thisbasket? Explain that the Aztecs used woven baskets to collect and storeall manner of things. In the activity that follows, students will use thisgraphic organizer to collect important information about Aztec daily life.Reading for UnderstandingHave students read Section 25.2 to help them understand howAztec society was structured. Check for understanding by asking, What were the five classes in Aztec society? What were some of the important responsibilities or privileges ofeach class? What is similar about the classes in Aztec society and those in Mayansociety? What is different? In which class of Aztec society would you have wanted to live? Why?Writing for UnderstandingExplain that in this activity, students will create an illustratedjournal from the perspective of someone living in the Aztec capital ofTenochtitlan. To gather the necessary information, they will first workwith a partner to research three aspects of daily life. Then they will “visit”the Great Market of Tenochtitlan and trade for additional information.Lesson Guide19

Lesson25Phase I: Researching Three Aspects of Aztec Daily Life1 Place students in pairs. Have half of the pairs gather on each side ofthe classroom. It is very important to have an equal number of pairs oneach side of the room. If necessary, create one, two, or three groups ofthree students each to accomplish this.2 Assign pairs their first topic to research in History Alive! TheMedieval World and Beyond. Give pairs on one side of the room (“oddpairs”) their first research topic, marriage (Section 25.3). Assign pairs onthe other side of the room (“even pairs”) their first research topic, familylife (Section 25.4). Carefully review the directions for Reading Notes 25.Encourage students to look at the image of the Great Market in theirbooks for ideas for their drawings; you might also project Transparency25 again. Explain that when a group finishes their notes for their firsttopic, they should bring them to you for checking.3 Check students’ work. When pairs bring up their first set of ReadingNotes, use Guide to Reading Notes 25 to make sure the notes are complete and accurate and the drawing of the market item is clear andappropriate. Then assign pairs their next research topic. For odd pairs,assign the topic of food (Section 25.5) and then religious practices(Section 25.7). For even pairs, assign the topic of markets (Section 25.6)and then recreation (Section 25.8).4 Have pairs draw additional copies of their market items. Once allpairs have researched their three aspects of daily life, distribute half adozen small sticky notes to each pair. Have students make two moredrawings of each of the three market items in their Reading Notes on thesticky notes. The drawings should be clear and colorful. They will usethese extra drawings to trade with other students later in the activity.Phase II: Trading to Learn About Three More Aspectsof Aztec Daily Life1 Move the desks to create a large open space in the middle of theroom, and project Transparency 25 again. (Note: Consider what youmight do to enhance the “market” atmosphere, such as laying colorfulrugs on the floor for students to sit on or creating an area with foods thatmight be sold in an Aztec market, such as tomatoes, chilis, avocados, andchocolate.) Have pairs sit together on the floor around the edges of theopen space. They should have their Reading Notes “basket” and extradrawings in front of them.2 Review the directions on Information Master 25A: Trading at theGreat Market of Tenochtitlan. Consider projecting a transparency of them.20 Lesson Guide
