6MR - Maya history
6MR are currently enjoying exploring Maya history and have recently learned about the Spanish Conquistadors.
They worked well in teams to imagine what it'd be like to explore the tropical rainforests in Central America and stumble upon ancient Maya ruins. They mind-mapped powerful adjectives to describe how they may have felt and then used these to create some exciting sentences.
Diary entries from the viewpoint of a Spanish Conquistador to be written soon!
