2. IIf you are right handed, you will tend to chew your food on your right side. If you are left handed, you will tend to chew your food on your left side. TThe reason honey is so easy to digest is that it’s already been digested by a bee.

3. The information we want to learn for the day are called learning targets. Goal is to be able to successfully hit each “target”  Master the content!

4. Red, white and blue 50 stars for the 50 current states 13 stripes for the 13 original colonies I can describe the American flag.

5.  Knowledge of Historical Facts- These targets are the basic facts of history. ◦ Multiple Choice Questions on Unit Test ◦ ReviewCab ◦ Vocabulary  Historical Reasoning and Analysis- These targets relate to doing something with the facts you have learned. ◦ Free Response Questions on Unit Test ◦ Venn Diagram- show similarities and differences ◦ Flow Charts- show cause and effect or time relationships ◦ Basic Document Analysis- Single document with questions relating to purpose and importance  Mapping- These targets relate to the labeling, drawing and interpreting of historical maps ◦ Free Response Questions on Unit Test ◦ Regional Maps from certain points in history that you label ◦ Questions based on already labeled maps to draw information from.  Document Analysis- This target relates specifically to analyzing multiple documents and using them to answer a larger question. ◦ Free Response Questions on Unit Test ◦ Document Base Questions  Historical Writing- This target relates to historical writing using assertions, evidence, and commentary with a thesis statement. ◦ Document Based Questions with a written prompt ◦ Short Answer Questions on Unit Test

6.  1.1- I CAN DESCRIBE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PALEOLITHIC AND NEOLITHIC ERA.  1.2- I CAN COMPARE AND CONTRAST THE DEVELOPMENTS OF THE PALEOLITHIC AND NEOLITHIC ERA.  1.3- I CAN MAP THE MIGRATION OF EARLY MAN  1.4- I CAN EXPLAIN THE SIGNIFICANT OF ARCHAEOLOGY ON THE DISCOVERY OF EARLY MAN

8.  Archaeology is the study of past societies through analyzing remains, settlements, fossils, and artifacts.  Archaeologists use carbon dating to determine the approximate age of artifacts.  No written records until 1,000 BCE, thus these findings and interpretations are how we understand the prehistoric era.

9.  Three early examples of cities found by archaeologists (8,000 to 7,000 BCE): ◦ Jericho and Aleppo - located on the west bank of the Jordan River in present-day Palestine. ◦ Catal Huyuk in present- day Turkey.

10.  Stonehenge (2500 BCE) ◦ Built in what is today England, Stonehenge is an example of archeology developed during the Neolithic Era

19.  Invented the first simple, stone tools.  Lived by hunting and gathering wild food. Groups were nomadic Moved from one place to another following sources of food, shelter, water. Families combined to form clans of two to three dozen that created early social groups  Used caves as shelter ◦ Fire served for warmth and protection.

20.  No written languages ◦ Relied on oral languages ◦ Most knowledge of Era gained through artifacts  First works of art - Cave paintings ◦ Early paintings found in caves in Spain, France, Africa, and Australia show scenes of animals and humans. ◦ Can be used to interpret how early man lived
