  2. RAFT TASK:RIVER VALLEY CIVILIZATIONS YOU DO: USING LITERARY CIRCLES, READ TEXTBOOK: RIVER VALLEYS CIVILIZATIONS ON PAGES 92-93. CREATE CORNELL NOTES ON DETAILS FOR RIVER VALLEY CIVILIZATIONS. WRITE WORKSHEET: SUPPORT WITH EVIDENCE FROM YOUR READING To lift lines, please use these format: Page___paragraph___ line ____ states that, “_________________________________________.” THEN, WRITE EXPLANATION OF YOUR LIFTED LINES IN YOUR WORDS AT END OF CLASS, SUBMIT COMPLETED WORK TO GROUP MANAGERS. GROUP MANAGERS, SUBMIT WORK TO MR. TINEO FOR GRADING.

  3. DO NOW INSTRUCTIONS: • READ TEXTBOOK: EASTERN HEMISPHERE RIVER VALLEYS CIVILIZATIONS ON PAGES 92-93. • LOCATE: WHERE WERE THE FOUR EARLIEST RIVER VALLEY CIVILIZATIONS LOCATED?

  4. SAMPLE INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH LET’S MOVE TO THE RIVER. THE RIVER PROVIDE WATER, FOOD AND TRANSPORTATION FOR ALL FOR OUR PEOPLE. At first, hunter-gatherers societies spent most of their time hunting for food. When ever the animals moved from their location, they had to follow. It was a very difficult life to live under those conditions, especially if water was not available in the area. As a result, hunter-gatherers decided to move to river valleys. Why did they move to rivers valleys? As stated on Paragraph 1 of page 93, “river valleys were a good location for farming. Three key factors made river valleys good for farming: First, the fields that bordered the rivers were flat, which made it easier for farmers to plant crops. Second, the soils were nourished by flood deposits and silt, which made them very fertile. Finally, the river provided the water farmers needed for irrigation. “ Rivers were necessary for early civilizations to form. The Egyptian early civilization began next to the Nile River Valley. The Indian early civilization began next to the Indus River Valley, and the Chinese early civilization began next to the He River Valley. What did all early civilizations have in common? Rivers!

  5. PARAGRAPH #1(INTRODUCTION) • WRITE YOUR HOOK • EXPLAIN THE LIFE OF THE HUNTER-GATHERERS SOCIETY • EXPLAIN WHY DID THE HUNTERS-GATHERERS MOVE TO RIVER VALLEYS. –GOOD LOCATIONS FOR FARMING. EGYPTIANS-NILE RIVER VALLEY INDIANS-INDUS RIVER VALLEY CHINESE-HE RIVER VALLEY • EXPLAIN FACTORS WHY RIVERS VALLEYS WERE A GOOD LOCATION FOR FARMING.-page 92 5. WRITE YOUR THESIS STATEMENT

  6. SOCIAL STUDIES CORNELL NOTES

  7. STUDENT EXEMPLAR #1#1 • Improvements • USE: • THE TEXTUAL EVIDENCE IS SAYING THAT THE REASON WHY FIELDS THAT BORDERED THE RIVERS MADE IT EASIER FOR FARMER WAS BECAUSE FIELDS WERE FLAT. CROPS ON FLAT LANDS ARE EASIER TO IRRIGATE OR WATER THAN “HILLY” LANDS. IN ADDITION, LANDS ON HILLS ARE VERY DIFFICULT TO PLOW THAN FLAT LANDS. FACTORS WERE VERY FAVORABLE FOR FARMING TO TAKE PLACE. Improvements Paragraph #1 of page 92 states that, “_____________________”
