Big Write Discussion Ideas
Please keep for reference this term.
Suggestions for activities to support children’s learning at home:Visit the library and look for books that have information on water and
Mayans.
Search the internet for information about the water cycle and Mayan
civilization.
Record your water use in the home, discuss.
Look at an atlas to see if you can find out about water distribution and the
location of Mayan people.
Note:- these are just a few suggestions and not all of the ideas need
to be followed through although we would be delighted to see
anything that children produce relating to the topics of the term.
