Ancient Maya Day
Last week, Year 6 enjoyed an immersion day which allowed them to explore this half term's new topic: 'The Ancient Maya'.
During the day, the students enjoyed discussing the Ancient Mayan civilisation and can now recall who they were, where they lived, why they are considered significant and what traditions they experienced.
Below, you can see the students creating Mayan headdresses, making (and tasting) Mayan hot chocolate, ordering the beginning and end of the Ancient Maya on a timeline and playing the Mayan ball game of pok-a-tok.
Did you know that the most important people in the Ancient Mayan civilisation, such as priests and nobles, wore large and extravagant headdresses?
