AIM: I will refute 3 points made by Professor Noitall in order to explain hunter-gatherer society.
Standard: 7.1.5 Describe hunter-gatherer societies and how they worked.
Do Now:
1) Vocabulary term: a person who picks up food from the ground, bushes and trees.
2) Vocabulary term: time of day as sun sets.
3) Vocabulary term: a group of people who go on a quest.
4) Vocabulary term: a very, very long time
Lesson Steps:
Once we finished the Do Now we went over a couple of the questions from last night's homework but we were in a rush because Professor Noitall was on his way to deliver a short lecture to our class. He visited us all the way from Australia.
Professor Noitall gave his brief lecture and students took notes about what he said but also had several questions. They realized that he did not necessarily know exactly what he was talking about. So on their handout, they had space to explain why they disagreed with the professor. I then told them that we would film their responses tomorrow.
We also reviewed the criteria for the vocabulary project that is due tomorrow and then had extra time to work on it in class.
Homework: Complete vocabulary project. The guidelines were given out on Monday (We are not doing "D" that will come next week).
Handout: Students took notes about Professor Noitall on the handout below.
