Some reflection
Since we've been talking about the various indigenous groups in the Americas before the arrival of Columbus, I thought of y'all when I came across this article this week.
https://phys.org/news/2021-03-ancient-maya-ambassador-bones-life.html

The Canvas response:

  • Provide a summary of the article (in English) with this information:

  • The indigenous group(s), location(s) and date(s) important to Ajpach' Waal's life. (This will be your topic sentence or paragraph.) 

  • At least FOUR injuries/illnesses Ajpach' Waal suffered through or suffered from. How did those injuries happen? How did each one affect him in his role as nobility and his overall health? How do researchers know he suffered from these illnesses or injuries? (A good paragraph will include at least four injuries, four sentences describing the injuries/illnesses, and four sentences describing the effects of the problems on his life.) (This will be the body of your response)

  • A personal reflection on the information. (This is your conclusion, and it is OK for your conclusion to contain new information, and your thoughts and opinions about the research and the article.)

If we really move quickly through the information, I want to practice this -- Spelling change pretérito:
