Global I - A schedule

Culture interviews were due today!
We shared some fun facts about our interviews & what we learned about others' culture.
We asked ourselves, "How does prehistoric cave art communicate ancient culture?" Then we looked at modern "cave art" or street murals. These art forms also communicate culture. We took it 1 step further & created our own art today in class. Each group came up with a topic that communicates culture & created posters to share!
In class, we completed a review handout about culture & artifacts.
For homework, complete Human Origins in Africa worksheet. Turn into tray at the beginning of class next Wednesday!

Happy Labor Day!

Global I - B schedule

Today for bellwork we studied a map in our books about the Early Migration Routes of pre-historic peoples. Then we completed a worksheet in class about it which tested our map interpretation skills.
Next, we discussed ancient cave paintings & what they can tell us about the culture of prehistoric peoples. We visited 10 different "caves" & discussed their possible interpretations.
Lastly, a primary source handout was given on the Lascaux Cave painting. You were assigned to describe how it was created & its purpose. This assignment should be a good paragraph in your Writing History section of your binder.
Don't forget, culture interviews are due Thursday!
