   http://school.discovery.com/lessonplans/programs/mayanewsreport/
   
   Extractions: Explain to students that they will explore the ancient civilization of the Maya during the classical period, from A.D. 300 to A.D. 900. This time in Maya civilization was marked by the growth of city-states and by imperial wars between them. Students will then prepare news reports about major events of this period. Events might include a great war planned for a special astronomical date or the capture of a rival king and his city-state. Explain to students that their news reports may be in the form of a magazine article, with sidebars providing background information; a major newspaper story; or an editorial. Students may also wish to videotape a presentation in the style of a prime-time television news show. Although students are reporting on historical events, they should strive to give their news stories a present-day immediacy.

    Extractions: Over three thousand years ago in the fertile jungles of lowland Mexico the first civilisation in the Americas was born. At the time of the Trojan wars, five hundred years before Rome was founded, the Olmec built great cities with pyramids and ball courts. Olmec objects were traded all over Mexico, even as far as Guatemala. Considered by most archaeologists to be the 'mother culture' of Mexico, the roots of the later Maya and Aztec cultures lie with the Olmec. One of the most extraordinary feats of the ancient Olmec was their monumental sculptures. The inhabitants of the site of La Venta erected huge sculptures, some of which weighed up to 40 tonnes. The most famous of these are the massive stone heads. Believed to be portraits of their leaders, they are over two metres high and sculpted entirely without the help of metal tools. There are thousands of tonnes of stones at the site but, most extraordinarily of all, these sculptures are found in an area where there is no rock available. The area identified as the source of the Olmec boulders lies in the Tuxtla mountains over 160 kilometres away. And between these mountains and La Venta the land is criss-crossed with massive rivers and swamps which would have made the transportation even more difficult. So how did the stones get to La Venta?
