Grades⦿ Unit Tests (50%)

● 6 cumulative unit tests that mirror that AP Exam in format and grading.● This includes 2-3 timed SAQs, a timed DBQ and/or a timed LEQ per unit. ● The last test of each semester will be worth double the other tests from the

semester to reflect that students should be showing growth and improvement over time.

⦿ Key Concept Quizzes, Writing Practice, and Document Analysis (25%)

● Completed online or written. Approximately 1-2 per week. This will include key concept multiple choice quizzes, SAQs (short-answer questions) as well as writing and document analysis activities in preparation for the AP essays.

⦿ Projects, Formal Discussions, and Final Performance Tasks (10%)

● 2-3 individual and/or group projects per semester. Points will vary based on the project or discussion.

● On the final exam day each semester, students will complete an individual or group performance task that asks them to apply what they have learned in class that semester.

Extra Credit

● Each unit students will have the opportunity to complete 1 or 2 extra credit projects that will be due the period before the unit test.

● These extra credit projects are designed to give students a chance to go into more depth on certain topics, review relevant course concepts, and study topics that I perhaps will not get to in class (for example, art history).

● Students are STRONGLY ENCOURAGED to take advantage of these extra credit opportunities throughout the semester as there will be no extra credit on the unit tests.

● All extra credit combined will add no more than 3-4% to a student’s overall grade depending on the quality of the work.

The Paleolithic Era

Page 9: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

SummaryThroughout the Paleolithic era, humans developed sophisticated technologies and adapted to different geographical environments as they migrated from Africa to Eurasia, Australasia, and the Americas

Page 10: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

Who were the first humans?HominidsHumans and other creatures that walk upright on two feet.

Australopithecus - The first Hominids

They are thought to have emerged in East Africa in the Great Rift Valley between 3-4 million years ago.Homo habilis - Meaning handy human; was a phase between Australopithecus and Homo Erectus that emerged between 2.5-1.6 million years ago.

Lucy – discovered in 1974; bipedal creature that lived in eastern Africa more than 3 million years ago (hybrid between modern humans and apes)

Page 11: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

Who were the first humans?Homo ErectusSecond stage in early human development, Homo erectus, which means upright human being, emerged about 1.8 million years ago. These were the first hominids to leave Africa and move into Europe and Asia.They had bigger brains and used more complex tools. They used fire and lived in small bands suggesting higher intelligence and language skills.

Who were the first humans?Homo Sapiens

About 250,000 years ago Homo sapiens emerged.Homo Sapiens means “Wise Person” or “Consciously Thinking Man”.Large, well-developed brain; more sophisticated toolsThis group split into two distinct groups:

Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens Sapiens

Page 13: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

Who were the first humans?Neanderthals

Discovered in the Neander Valley in Germany. Thought to have lived between 100,000 and 30,000 years ago; they lived in Europe and Turkey.They used stone tools, and buried their dead. It is thought they had some primitive religious beliefs.It was originally thought that they were killed off by homo sapiens sapiens, but new evidence has recently emerged that shows that there was some genetic mixing between the two groups.

Who were the first humans?Homo Sapien Sapiens• Modern Human Beings• Ability to adapt to different environmental settings led to

migration to all continents.

• Believed to have appeared in Africa between 150,000-200,000 years ago

• Began to migrate outside of Africa 100,000 years ago.

• Believed by many to have replaced the Neanderthals by 30,000 B.C.E.

• By 10,000 B.C.E. Homo Sapiens Sapiens could be found throughout the world due to migration.

Archeological Evidence

The study of past societies through an analysis of what people have left behind.

The study of human life and culture

The remains of ancient plants and animals.By studying fossils archaeologists and anthropologists can learn about what people ate, what animals they had around, and their way of life.

Summary of the Paleolithic Era• “Paleo” means old “Lithic” means stone• Paleolithic= Old Stone Age. This era was called the stone age because

early man used stone to make his tools and weapons.• Paleolithic man lived in groups called clans.• These clans got their food by Hunting and Gathering• Once the food supply ran out they would move to a different area. • Because they moved from place to place they were Nomadic.

Page 23: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

Summary of the Paleolithic Era• Gathering was a more reliable source of food and so

in Paleolithic society it is thought that it may have been Matriarchal, or female dominated.

• Women were often seen at the time as symbols of life and fertility. Many ancient religions were centered around the worship of the earth and the woman was often representative of the earth and life because of the fact that women gave birth.

Summary of the Paleolithic Era• Early ideas about religion are often called sympathetic magic.• It is thought that early man often drew, or made representations of

what he/she wanted to happen. Fertility statues for having many children, paintings of successful hunts etc.

Summary of the Paleolithic EraEssential Knowledge● Wandered from place to place in search of food and shelter● Invented the first tools and weapons including simple stone tools.● Lived in groups called clans of about 20-30 people, used caves for

shelter.● Learned to make and control fire to keep warm and cook their food.● Developed oral, or spoken language● Made cave art and statues.● The role of men was to do the hunting● The role of women was gathering and caring for children

THE NEOLITHIC REVOLUTION AND EARLY

AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES

Page 29: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

Beginning about 10,000 years ago, the Neolithic Revolution led to the development of new and more complex economic and social systems.

Agriculture and pastoralism began to transform human societies.

Page 30: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

NEOLITHIC REVOLUTION• Began 10,000 years ago (8000

BCE) in Southwest Asia• Was not instantaneous, did not

occur everywhere at the same time, did not directly affect everyone

• Key Developments– Agriculture– Pastoralism– Specialization of Labor– Towns and Cities– Governments– Religions– Technological Innovations

Page 31: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

AGRICULTURE• Warmer global climates after the last Ice Age• Definition: the practice of raising crops or

livestock on a continual and controlled basis• Started to grow a surplus → trade• Crops that were already growing wild

– Southwest Asia = wheat and barley– Northern China = millet– Southeast Asia = rice– Mesoamerica = maize (corn)

• Led to decreased diversity in plants, insects, and animals as wells as diets

Page 32: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

PASTORALISM• Domestication: the taming of wild animals so they

could be brought up to live with humans– Dogs were first – useful in hunting and alerting people

to dangers– Goats – provided meat and milk

• As people began to keep larger herds (cattle, sheep, horses, chickens, and pigs), they began to lead them from one grazing land to another = pastoralism

– Llamas and alpacas in South America

• More mobile like hunters and gatherers; owned very little; regularly in contact with new people and ideas through trade; but also led to more disease

• Controlled food supply more effectively like farmers

– Like farmers, they significantly affected the environment: overgrazing = less fertile soil

Page 33: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

SPECIALIZATION OF LABOR• Surpluses of food = some workers were free to focus on other tasks• Artisans: people who made objects that were needed (cloth and pottery)• Merchants: people who buy and sell goods for a living• Craftspeople: construction workers to build houses, storage facilities, irrigation• Soldiers/warriors: protected food supplies and sometimes attacked others• Religious leaders: asked their gods to supply good harvests• Scribes: the invention of writing – first used to keep records about trades and tax payments

– Marks the transition from prehistory to history• Politicians/kings: told everyone else what to do

Page 34: AP World History would like. may sit wherever you holder ...€¦ · ⦿Homework, Classwork, Binder Checks, and Review Folders (12%) Periodic and unannounced homework and/or classwork

TOWNS AND CITIES• Food surpluses = increased population and

opportunities to do work not related to producing food

• Change in food production led to social stratification – some people accumulated wealth in the form of jewelry and other prized items and by building larger and better decorated houses

• The concept of “private property” becomes more important

• Men who control the food surplus become the wealthy elite

• Earliest cities: Jericho (9000 BCE) and Catal Huyuk (7500 BCE)

– Neither city became a major site for an emerging civilization

GOVERNMENTS• Government was required to

organize workers to clear lands and provide irrigation.

• Powerful leaders also supervised how food surpluses were used and the soldiers who were needed to protect them

• Priests supervised religious ceremonies and explain how the actions of the leaders were based on the religious beliefs of the people.

RELIGIONS

• Early farmers experienced the same problems with the environment as modern farmers– Overfarming and overgrazing

• People look to the spirits of nature to help with their crops and herds• Religious ceremonies became more elaborate and a special class of priests and priestesses

developed• One of the first groups to practice monotheism = the Hebrews, led by Abraham, along the

Mediterranean Sea• South Asia = the Vedic religion had a variety of deities and a heavy emphasis on rituals• Modern-day Iran = Zoroastrianism, led by their teacher Zoraster, focused on the eternal battle

between good and evil

TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONS• Most people learned about new technology

through trade, war, or other forms of contact

– Waterproof clay pots – use to store food and carry water; sometimes decorated

– Plow – made cultivating crops much easier

– Wheel with axle – wheeled carts could transport everything more easily

– Textiles – weavers (usually women), learned to spin hair from animals or fibers from plants

– Metallurgy – the study of metals replaced stone tools and weapons (first copper, then bronze around 3000 BCE)

These seven developments created the foundation for a new form of human society: civilization
