I sure am happy that we do
not have to live in caves Nick!
Now we use mud bricks that are
packed together to live in. We also
add stones or tree branches to
strengthen our houses too.

That is right Nel! We also now
live in permanent shelters instead
of temporary shelters. This allows
us to get more work done faster, such
as getting food, supplies, and building
houses.

These changes are important because with permanent shelters, people were

protected by harsh weather and wild animals. With permanent shelters it also

made life more comfortable and helped people find new ways to cook. With this

permanent shelters also enabled longer lasting houses and created large

communities.

In the Paleolithic Age, people would live in caves

or rough, tent-like structures.They lived in

temporary shelters because they would follow

cattle and had to find new crops.

In the Paleolithic Age people would hunt and gather food. Hunting was

dangerous though, and could get people hurt or killed. Gathering food was not

a stable food supply because the plants would take a while to grow and

harvest.

We now have learned that we
could grow our own food by
collecting and planting the
seeds of plants. This is what
we call agriculture. Agriculture
is the growing of crops and training
animals.

That is right Nel! We
learned how to obtain
sheep, goats and cattle.
These animals allowed
us to have food,wool, milk,
and animals for pulling plows.

These changes are

important because

without a stable food

supply people would go

hungry. Once the

Neolithic people found

ways to get more food

people could be healthy

and not go hungry.

In the Paleolithic Age people would use resources like animals and plants

instead of trading to get items they needed. Since they did not have trade they

could not get very many valuable items or enough food to feed everyone.

Now that we have trade we
can make better things with
materials that we got.We liked
to trade because we could enhance
the strength and beauty of the objects
we made.Right Nick?
