This PowerPoint challenges pupils to think like historians with an introduction to the fascinating topic of the Maya or Mayans.
These are the key areas covered over two (possibly more) lessons:
Lesson 1
where the Mayans originated
the Mayans today
how we know about the Mayans - exploring sources and reliability
a detailed timeline, and sorting activity which can be displayed or done as an outdoor measured timeline to give a sense of time and distance from present day
Lesson 2
using sources to research the main gods of the Mayans and presenting research to others
comparing sources to look at reliability
