1. Trace the Biological and Cultural Evolution of early to Modern Humans Lorna B. Mercado

2. Content Standard The learner demonstrate understanding of : The human origins and the capacity for culture The role of culture in human adaptation

3. Performance standard Analyze the Significance of Cultural, Social, Political and Economic Symbols and Practices Most essential learning competence Analyze the significance of cultural, social, political and economic symbols and practice

4. At the end of the lesson the student should be able to: Explore the processes of biological and cultural evolution. Discuss how artifacts and fossils help us understand the cultural, social, and economic developments of modern human Inquire about the role of museums as venues where society’s biological, social, and cultural evolution can be appreciated

5. BIPEDALISM A major type of locomotion, involving movement on two feet.

6. OLDOWAN tool making tradition characterized by crudely worked pebble (chopping) tools from the early Paleolithic, dating to about 2 million years ago and not formed after a standardized pattern.

7. CHIMPANZEE species of ape that, along with the bonobo, is most closely related to humans.

8. What does the photo portray?

9. EVOLUTION The process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed and diversified from earlier forms during the history of the earth.

10. BIOLOGICAL EVOLUTION Defined as any genetic change in a population that is inherited over several generations. These changes may be small or large, noticeable or not so noticeable.

11. CULTURAL EVOLUTION Refers to the changes or development in cultures from a simple form to a more complex form of human culture. Changes in socially transmitted beliefs, knowledge, customs, skills, attitudes, languages, and so on.

12. CHARLES DARWIN was an English naturalist, geologist and biologist, best known for his contributions to the science of evolution through his Natural Selection

13. NATURAL SELECTION Outcome of processes that affect the frequencies of traits in a particular environment. Traits that enhance survival and reproductive success increase in frequency over time.

14. THREE IMPORTANT PRINCIPLES Every species is made up of a variety of individuals wherein some are better adapted to their environments compared to others. Organisms produce progeny [offspring] with different sets of traits that can be inherited. Organisms that have traits most suitable to their environment survive and transfer these variations to the other offspring in subsequent generations. (Survival of the fittest)

15. HOMINID general term used by scientists to categorize the group of early humans and other humanlike creatures that can walk erect during the prehistoric time.

16. SAHELANTHROPUS apelike and humanlike. a skull similar to the Australopithecus and modern humanlike. height almost similar to chimpanzee. brain size to 320-380 cubic cm. small teeth walk upright.

17. ARDIPITHECUS it means “ape on the ground” height of about 4 feet weight of about 120 pounds skull size similar to an ape small brain biped live in jungles and forests

18. AUSTRALOPITHECUS brain size of 500 cubic centimeters upright biped tool users only not tool makers used sticks and stones for digging lived in small social groups ate insects, eggs, plants, fruits and meat the most common ancestor. Lucy one of the modern human’s earliest ancestors its remains as the most famous hominid fossil discovered Discovered in Hadar , Ethiopia by Dr. Donald Johanson

19. HOMO

20. HOMO HABILIS height of about 3 to 4 ft. brain size half the size of modern human made tools called Oldowan . used tools for hunting and gathering.

21. HOMO ERECTUS brain size of 1,000 cc height of about five feet walks upright known for making complex tools. skillful hunters

22. HOMO ERECTUS the first to use fire the first to live in small houses made of branches of trees the first to use spoken language. first homo to live and survive in Asia.

23. HOMO SAPIENS large brain size (1400 cc) lived in shelters food gatherers ate plants and fruits hunted animals learned to gather and cook shellfish used fire crafted metals made sophisticated and smoothened tools.*first to develop oral languages.

24. CRO MAGNON first group of homo sapiens taken from rock shelter in France oldest population of Homo Sapiens in Europe.

25. MUSEUM Role of museums is to collect objects and materials of cultural, religious and historical importance, preserve them, research into them and present them to the public for the purpose of education and enjoyment.

26. Major Performance Task Look for minimum of five old/valuable things in your home and make your own museum using 1/8 Illustration board and indicate its reason why is it valuable in your family.

27. Guidelines With Plastic cover Minimum of 5 old/valuable things 1/8 Illustration Board Make your own title of your own museum
