On Wednesday 3rd April 2019, it was R.E week and we were leaning about the word salvation & how it links to the Easter Story.We have also been creating posters on people that gave us Salvation, for example Martin Luther King who gave salvation for black people.
Last week we had the parents come in so we could persuade them that the Mayans were civilised or not.Me and my friend we chose civilised and we did a drama piece of how the Mayans made chocolate that's what I am going to teach you now. Firstly ground the coco beans into a paste the mix then add the chilli and mix really good you will see that you have hot chocolate but the best way to drink your hot chocolate is dipping a maize cake into the hot chocolate. I hope you have learnt how to make chocolate\hot chocolate YUMMY!
This term we have been learning about the Mayans and we decided if they were civilised or uncivilised. We done a little tour and we looked at posters. Our group made different Mayans themes which were farming, chocolate, slaves, sacrifices and architecture. And i was the narrator/tour guide and I showed the parents different posters. After a while when we finished the tour the parents decided if the Mayans were civilised or uncivilised.
Last term, we started a debate as a class deciding whether the Mayans were civilised or not. I personally thought that the Mayans were mostly civilised. My reasons were, they created chocolate, learnt how to use maths, studied science and they even built astronomy towers.
The reason I don’t think they were all civilised is because they had human and animal sacrifices.
