This term we will be learning all about the Maya Civilisation! We will look at the timeline of human history and where the Maya fit into this– thinking back on our prior knowledge of the Ancient Civilisations we have already learnt about. We will focus on the Geography of the part of the world that the Maya were discovered and the culture that they adopted. We will also look at the similarities and differences between the people then and our lives today. We will read texts linked to the Maya people and their beliefs– thinking about their religious practices and ideology. We will also learn about their written and numerical systems and how they communicated.
