WEST MIDDLE SCHOOL students delve into prehistoric human culture


Seventh-grade students at West Middle School continue their studies on prehistoric humans.

The students have been taking on the role of archaeologist, and examining simple artifacts. Students have been taking on the role of a scientist and studying pictures of hominid skulls and putting them in order of oldest to newest.

Taking on the role of an anthropologist, students ask questions like, "How did these early humans live?" or "How did early humans get their food and clothing?"

Taking a look at cave paintings left behind by prehistoric people has been something the seventh graders have enjoyed looking at, as well.

Soon, the seventh graders will begin to look at ancient civilizations.
