Mayan Simulation Reflection

This year we did a Maya Simulation. The simulation was for we to learn about the Mayas and to experienced the way they lived and traded.I thought that this simulation was really fun and exciting. It was very interesting to learn about the Ancient Maya and their ways. The simulation was a very creative idea and I enjoyed it. On the first day  it was a bit though because we had to fill out the royal census,royal inventory,math tasks and many other things. It was a bit confusing but by day 3 I had already understood it and it was simple. I thought that the sacrifice was really fun and I liked how the God Chac was in charge of things. All in All I thought that this simulation was a very fun and exciting thing to do.

In the house Kee- sup and Young- sup have the idea to make the pottery pieces on the line of the dragon kite, which helps them win the Kite Fighting competition. They also study with their tutor there and Kee- sup tells Young- sup about the virtues of Confucius. The father also says that Kee- sup has to flythe kite for the Kite Fighting competition. Kee- sup then persuades his father to let Young- sup fly in the Kite Fighting competition. Young- sup flies the dragon kite, wins and makes his family proud. I think that they interacted a lot in the different settings.

I think the most difficult thing to do in my TKF project was to plan and to organize the writing and the drawings. I think it was difficult because I only had one piece of paper and I had to write five paragraphs and I had to write neatly but my hand writing is a bit messy. In the end I organized it and the project looked very good.
