Maya civilisation in Year 6

It is all hands on deck in the lead up to SATs in Year 6! We all have been working extremely hard in the run-up to the exams. We have studied hard in Maths, Grammar and reading. In the afternoons, we have been learning about the Maya Civilisation. We kicked off our topic with making and designing our own Mayan masks. We learnt that the Maya used masks for various reasons such as: death, celebrations and in battle. We had to really think about the design elements in our masks and think what colours to use and what this represented in their civilisation. Next week, watch out...Year 6 will be performing a Maya sacrifice which will help write a 1st person narrative!
