Unit #2 reflection

1) Describe how you prepared/studied for the unit test.


Before i went to bed for the last few days before the test i would sit down and revise. Some times i would even fall asleep on my note book, witch sometimes made me dream about the test. Last Friday i had a sleep over because of my birthday and me, Eliza and Sophia quizzed each other.


a)    Do you think your studying strategies were effective - why/not?


Yes, because i think that if you study with your friends, it just sometimes makes you feel more comfortable, but if your friends are one of those that don't like to study for a test than not.


b)     How will you prepare next time?


Some people can think/study/work better in fresh air (like me) so i will probably sit on my chair outside and study, or quiz my friends and let them quiz me.


2) What was the most surprising thing you learned about during this unit? 


The most surprising thing i learned during this unit was about Lucy.


3) If we had more time to spend on prehistory+ early humans- what would you want to learn more about?


About how they where able to travel so far and why it took them so long to walk of to feet.

Taming fire

How does the use of fire demonstrate prehistoric people's ability to adapt to their environment?


The fire helps prehistoric people to adapt to their environment. Fire helps them to protect them selves from any animals that wont to kill them because animals fear fire. If their is a big fire and animals get caught init they would dye so prehistoric people would have gotten a chance to eat cooked food instead of poisoned food. The fire also let the prehistoric people also stay up late so they could tell stories to each other.
