In class, we have been learning about the everyday lives of early humans. Mostly, we have focused on Hunter-Gatherers and how their lives were both very similar and very different to ours.
Start by creating a google doc. Name your google doc with your name and VLD-Sept. Share this google doc with Mr. Chambers |
After you have watched the video.

Your job is to look for three meals which you would make in your home and put the ingredients to these foods together and photograph them. You will need to do this for three meals.
