Ancient Civilizations

Welcome to 6th Grade History! 

Week Three

Hello Historians! Welcome to another exciting week of 6th grade history! This time, we are heading way back in time, before Humans like us even existed. Hang on to your seat, we're going back in time to over 2 million years ago! 

Learning outcomes:

6.1     Students describe what is known through archaeological studies of the early physical and cultural development of humankind from the Paleolithic era to the agricultural revolution.
1. Describe the hunter-gatherer societies, including the development of tools and the use of fire. 
2. Identify the locations of human communities that populated the major regions of the world and describe how humans adapted to a variety of environments. 
3. Discuss the climatic changes and human modifications of the physical environment that gave rise to the domestication of plants and animals and new sources of clothing and shelter.
