The EDSITEment lesson plan "Couriers of the Inca Empire: Getting Your Message Across" provides educators with an engaging way to teach students about the Inca Empire's communication system. This resource explores how the chasquis (Inca messengers) used an extensive relay network and quipu (knotted cords) to transmit information across the vast empire. The lesson includes primary sources, interactive activities, and discussion prompts to help students understand the challenges of communication in a pre-modern society. It supports inquiry-based learning, critical thinking, and cross-curricular connections in history, geography, and STEM.
tag(s): communication (122), inquiry (36), native americans (128), south america (80), STEM (369)
In the Classroom
Introduce students to quipu, the Inca system of knotted cords used for record-keeping, and then have students create quipu-inspired messages using yarn or string, encoding data such as population counts or food supplies. Set up a mock Inca relay system where students act as chasquis by dividing the class into teams and having them pass messages (written or in picture form) across the classroom or schoolyard without speaking. Use a paper map or Google My Maps, reviewed here to trace the routes the couriers would take to deliver messages.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
