Today we had very short mods since we came in 2 hours late today after having two days off for snow. Mr. Schick showed us a PowerPoint on some of the things that we have been going over from the lesson in the textbook. We started off by talking about before civilizations, the origins and “ages” of humans. 2,000 years ago, a human species emerged in southwest Africa. 14,000 years ago, a worldwide human race existed. Earliest pre-historic age is the Paleolithic age which is also known as the old stone age. Neolithic age, also known as the new stone age, was marked by advanced tool making and the beginning of agriculture. Initially, humans were parts of migratory groups which hunted, fished, and gathered plants for their food. The agricultural revolution is another thing they called the Neolithic revolution. This is the new agricultural revolution. Overall I feel like I learned some good stuff today even though we didn’t get through much because of the shortened classes, we were productive with the time we had.
