  who discovered fire, painted cave walls, and made simple tools.

• Students will interpret the effect of a surplus of food as a cause for population growth in successful Neolithic settlements.
• *New this week* Students will learn and discuss the events that took place on September 11, 2001

Students will create a Venn Diagram in their Spiral Notebooks to compare the lifestyle differences between the Paleolithic and Neolithic Societies. 

Students will also complete a Readers Theater- based on the Early Humans.

Students will Analyze the events that took place on September 11, 2001 by working through an interactive timeline filled with primary sources from moments of that day.
