Maya Social Studies Project Name_________________________#_____________
Your final Maya social studies project will be an item made at home. The project needs to be a replica of something the Maya would have made. It needs to be true to color and material as much as possible from the Maya civilization.
Your parents have already been in 6th grade, so this is your project! Parents may assist by driving you to the library to do research, assisting in small supply purchases and general coaching from the side line. These are student projects enjoy yourself!
Here are some possible project ideas, you may choose from this list or come up with your own ideas.
Ideas: models, pictures or replicas of the following: Maya Codex book, Maya Hieroglyphs, pottery, ornaments, headdresses, fans, masks, musical instruments, weapons, dugout canoes, shields, pyramids, Maya math, ruins, temples, ritual calendar etc……
All projects must be approved by Mrs. Richards by October 10 and the final project plus typed circa card is due October 19.
You will need to submit a museum display card (circa card) which gives a very brief explanation of what your artifact is, how it was used and the date it would have been used….SEE EXAMPLE:
Circa: 250 to 900 A.D.
This is a replica of a Mayan Stelae. The Stelaes were stone monuments that recorded important events in the lives of Mayan leaders. Many of these amazing monuments were hidden by fast growing rain forests.
Read over these directions and have your parent’s sign that they know the requirements for the project.
