Presentation transcript:

Lucy Read the story, “Digging up the Past” on pg. 36-37 out loud with your group and discuss/record responses to the following questions: Where, when, and how was Lucy found? Describe how Lucy may have looked. From day to day, what are 3 things she might have done? What evidence from the Lucy find could help scientists develop an explanation about the gap between modern humans and early non-human primates? Compare hominids from Lucy’s lifetime to your own. Do you think there have been more changes in physical characteristics of the body or more changes in how hominids lived? Analyze Figure E2.8 on pg. 110. Where does Lucy fit into this diagram? Using that same figure, explain why the phrase “humans evolved from monkeys” is not a statement that is supported by the currently understood evolutionary tree.
