SOCIAL STUDIES - Week 2 Lesson 1: Ancient History

29

Learning Objective: Students will know they are successful by showing the flow of different cultural ideas through answering questions and creating flow charts

• 6.G3.1: Students will be able to analyze how cultural characteristics affect the movement of people, languages, ideas and more.

________________________________________________________________________________

What is Culture?

• Answers will vary. Students will get points when they explain their answers. o Examples: Culture is a pattern of behavior from a group of people/society. o Culture allows us to learn about different ideas, modes of thinking, and explains why

things are different from our society. o We are able compare different cultures to our own and create meaningful discussions.

Vocab:

meaningful explanation as to why they decided to draw it.

o Examples: ▪ Civilization: I would draw a picture of a city with people walking around. A King

may be waving to the people.

• Explanation: I chose to draw this because I wanted to show that a

civilization has 8 key features. I drew two of the eight. A city and the fact

that there is a social hierarchy (I.e.- a king). o This is an example- students answers will vary! That is okay! It is all about making sure
