Social Studies at home – May, the 4th

Hello again everyone!

We are learning about The Periods of History. The first Period is Prehistory. 

Prehistory is divided into two periods: 

1st) The Stone Age: divided into Paleolithic and Neolithic Periods.

2nd) The Bronze and Iron Ages.

Right now, we are studying about the Neolithic (Social Studies book, pages 78 & 79).

Try to answer these questions aloud:

  • When did the Neolithic Period start?
  • When did it end?
  • What was the most important invention in this Period?
  • Why did people become sedentary?
  • What were their jobs?
  • How did  trade start?
  • What main objects did they do?

If you have any problem to answer these questions, please, let us know.

Have a good day!
