My teacher and I would try to have a conversation about what we did yesterday. Then we would go over my homework. Then we would work on new stuff - new words nouns and verbs. There would be a break from 1030 to 1100. </p> <p>After the break, the work would continue and involve some reading and comprehension. </p> <p>A bell would sound at 1 and then we would be dismissed.</p> <p>The only difficult part was that the room got really cold. Xela has a subtropical, highland climate, making it actually a bit chilly..

The origins of his cult are not very well understood by outsiders to the different Mayan religions, but Maximón is believed to be a form of the pre-Columbian Maya god Mam, blended with influences from Catholicism. Maximón may also be called San Simón. It has been suggested that the name Maximón is a combination of Simón and Max, the Mam word for tobacco. The legend has it that one day while the village men were off working in the fields, Maximón slept with all of their wives. When they returned, they became so enraged they cut off his arms and legs (this is why most effigies of Maximón are short, often without arms). Somehow he became a god following this, perhaps he was possessed by the god prior. Later, with the introduction of Christianity, Maximón's effigy replaced one of Judas Iscariot in Christian Holy Week carnival rituals. GUA_2011 646
