Directions Earlier in this era you were asked to respond to six prompts about what you would learn in this unit.  Now that the unit is coming to an end, you will revisit those prompts by answering the following questions. Your answer should include a response and an explanation of how your understanding has changed since this unit started.  You may want to revisit your submission from the earlier assignment to see how your views have changed.  In your response, you will present a one – two paragraph response for each of the TWO questions you select and include:  a. Your topic sentence (your decision) and how your decision changed from 2.0D (if you remember) b. 3-4 examples from our reading/unit material to support your decision (no need to cite the source) c. A counter claim – how someone would argue against your decision  d. Response to the counterclaim  e. Conclusion  Select TWO of these questions to develop your response.  What caused some humans to shift from foraging to farming and what were the effects of this change? How did our ancestors migrate across much of the Earth and figure out how to survive in new regions? In what ways were foraging cultures similar to each other despite differences in the environments in which they lived? In what ways were farming cultures similar to each other despite differences in the environments in which they lived? Which way of living do you think was more desirable, foraging or farming—and why? What different interpretations and evidence are used to explain why farming developed? SUBMIT when completed.
