STUDY GUIDE for the first G6 test!

For the test next week, you need to study the following things:

Know the different skulls and craniums on the back of your “Brains vs. Brawn” reflection sheet.

Know ALL the facts about “Lucy” and all the other hominids except for Neanderthals and Homo sapiens (Cro-Magnons).  But make sure you know the meaning of every hominid name or the reason behind each hominid name.  And make sure you know all the facts found on study guide (Chapter 4, Lesson 3) “Hunters and Gatherers.”

Know the order that the hominids appear on the timeline: Lucy, Homo habilis, Homo erectus/Homo ergaster, Homo Heidelbergensis, Neanderthals, Homo sapiens. You do not have to memorize the exact dates because there are not always “exact” dates in the study of prehistory. Just know the order that the hominids come in and the other details about them like toolmaking ability, etc.

Know who/what “Lampang Man” was, that the four cranium fossils were found in 1999, etc.

Be ready to identify some pictures and state why they are important.

Remember to study all the sheets I told you, especially your study guide (Chapter 4, Lesson 3) “Hunters and Gatherers.”  The sheets you need to study on your Contents page are 7, 11, 13, 14, 15, and 16.

If you have any questions, come and see me!  Study with your friends!  Get your parents or friends to quiz you!

Good luck!

How to Make ENDNOTES in Word 2007 and Word 2003

For Word 2007, click “References” and then click “Insert Endnote.”  Then you copy and paste the website address into the endnote that appears. Make sure that the endnote is right up against the period or full stop, i.e., make sure that there is not space between the end of the sentence and the endnote.

(To change the endnotes to the standard “1, 2, 3,” click on the little arrow at the bottom of the box where you found “Insert Endnotes.”  Once you click on that little box, a new window will appear and you will choose “1, 2, 3″ in the “Number Format” option.  Then click “Apply.”  All of the endnotes that you typed should change from “i, ii, iii” to standard numbers.)
