1. Introduction to Anthropology:
An Alien Encounter

2. Let’s Review:
Anthropology is the scientific study of the origin, the behaviour, and the physical, social, and cultural development of humans.
An important question anthropologists seek to answer is: What makes humans human?

3. An Alien Encounter
Pretend that an alien has landed on our school property!
This alien is curious to learn about humankind.
Form a small group with 3-4 of your classmates and create a web of ideas or a mind map to visually display the main characteristics, qualities, and capabilities of humans.
Be prepared to present your ideas.
