Today is Thursday, September 24, 2015. Here is your friendly neighborhood classroom blog: THINK SPOT. On it, you will find classroom updates, daily agendas, videos, comments, articles, links, and FUN! At least that's my hope for you all.
So far in this World History course, we have spent A LOT of time watching. We have spent a lot of time watching documentaries and clips describing in great detail the innovation we know as AGRICULTURE. One of those clips we have watched is below. It is the short 2 minute 37 second clip of David Christian describing AGRICULTURE. As you read on and explore this blog, click on the videos included
We have also begun to think about two reading strategies. Both of them we have practiced together. The #1 reading comprehension strategy that is the most unused by middle school students is REREADING! In our case, we have practiced rereading by "RE-WATCHING". The second reading strategy that we have been practicing together is READING WITH A QUESTION IN MIND. That is what we will continue to practice today in preparation for the assessment next Tuesday. There are two questions that we will be "WATCHING" with in mind:
1.) Why was AGRICULTURE so important and how did it change the way early societies lived?
2.) Why did early humans migrate and how did migration affect their lives?
Now, this second question is a DOOZY! However, if you are able to WATCH WITH A QUESTION IN MIND, then you will be able to find your answers in this second video also by David Christian. If you fastforward to part 2 you will find the answers to the second question. Good luck and good hunting.
