1 Announcements: 1: Check your grades! You need: 1: Spiral/blank sheet of paper 2: River Valley Civilizations Map/Anchor Chart Assignment Bell Ringer: September (5)6, Get out your notes from last class. 2. Re-read your notes and in the summary space of your notes, summarize the causes and effects of the Neolithic Revolution. Causes: Hunter-gatherer bands scattered seeds near camps, resulting in the growth of crops Climate change resulted in longer growing seasons Effects: Shift from food gathering to food growing Established permanent settlements Writing developed Development of government Villages vulnerable to attacks and spread of disease

3 Announcements/Materials Announcements Check your grades! Materials Spiral/paper River Valley Civilizations Map/Anchor Chart Assignment

4 Lesson Objective Summarize the impact of the development of farming (Neolithic Revolution) on the creation of river valley civilizations Identify the characteristics of civilization 1. What are we learning? Rewrite the LO into a question. How would How will How might Why would Why will Why might

5 Lesson Objective 2. Why is it important/making a connection? How would you describe the person sending the messages (grey bubbles)? Ex: He s thirsty. Most people who began farming during the Neolithic Revolution were thirsty too, which is why most early civilizations settled along rivers.

6 Word Wall Vocabulary: Civilization: form of human culture in which people live in cities, have complex social institutions, use writing, and are skilled in science and technology Mesopotamia: civilization next to the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in present-day Iraq Tigris and Euphrates River: rivers in Iraq, where Mesopotamia developed Cuneiform: writing system of Mesopotamia Nile River: River in Egypt around which the Nile River Valley civilization developed Pharaoh: God-King of the Egyptians Hieroglyphics: Writing system of the Egyptians Indus River: River in India around which the Indus River Valley civilization developed Huang He: AKA Yellow River, where the Yellow River Valley civilization developed Theocracy: political system in which religious leaders also control the government Monarchy: political system in which hereditary ruler leads the government (king)

8 Characteristics of a Civilization Complex institutions (such as religion or government) Advanced cities, ex: Harappa, in Indus River Valley, had plumbing Advanced technology: plow, sail, wheel Record-keeping: cuneiform (Mesopotamia), hieroglyphics (Egypt), and oracle bones (China) Specialization of labor: scribe, warrior, musician, blacksmith

9 Turn and Talk SHOW ME! What are the criteria for a civilization? a. Advanced cities and technology b. Record-keeping c. Specialization of labor d. Complex institutions

10 Development of River Valley Civilizations Causes Spread of agricultural practices and the domestication of animals allowed for more sophisticated and larger settlements to emerge Societies emerge where there was access to fresh water, along the Tigris/Euphrates, the Nile, the Indus and the Huang He rivers. Periodic flooding of the rivers provided rich fertile soil Effects Civilization emerged with common political, economic, and cultural patterns Surplus agricultural output allowed some not to farm and new specialization of labor emerged. Social divisions became more pronounced Organized religions developed, first distinguished as mostly polytheist Law codes were introduced

11 Turn and Talk SHOW ME! Which best explains the rise of the river valley civilizations: a. Climate changes suddenly made hunting more plentiful b. The introduction of farming led to a surplus of crops in flood plains with fertile soil c. Stone Age peoples learned how to make fires and tools of stone, wood, and bone d. New ideas were introduced to Mesopotamia and Egypt through trade

12 Mesopotamia Location Complex Institutions Advanced Cities/Technology Record Keeping Fertile Crescent Tigris and Euphrates Rivers Present-day Iraq Polytheistic religion ziggurat (temple) at the center of each city-state Monarchy hereditary king, ex: Babylonian king Hammurabi Sumer/Ur Plow Pottery Bronze Wheel Sail Number system based on 60 and 360 degree circles Cuneiform writing

13 Turn and Talk SHOW ME! Which of the following civilizations was located in the Tigris and Euphrates River Valley, in the modern day country of Iraq? a. Egypt b. Mesopotamia c. China d. India

14 Egypt Location Complex Institutions Advanced Cities/Technology Record Keeping African continent Nile River Valley Polytheistic religion Theocracy ruled by pharaohs who were considered god-kings Society: upper, middle, lower, slaves Memphis Mummification of the dead Pyramids Calendar system based on Nile s flood cycle Medical advancements in surgery/broken bones Hieroglyphics written on papyrus, a paper made from reeds

15 Turn and Talk SHOW ME! Egyptian writing was a. Cuneiform in clay b. Oracle bones on bones c. Hieroglyphics on papyrus d. Letters on silk paper

16 India Location Complex Institutions Advanced Cities/Technology Record Keeping Indian subcontinent Indus River Valley Unknown, but probably a theocracy Society: Aryans settle area around 1500 BCE and establish a caste system to separate Aryan from non- Aryan Harappa/Mohenjo- Daro Sewer and plumbing system Planned city systems Undecipherable

17 Turn and Talk SHOW ME! The two cities of Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa were located in which river valley? a. Nile b. Tigris and Euphrates c. Indus d. Yellow

18 China Location Complex Institutions Advanced Cities/Technology Record Keeping Asian continent Yellow River Valley Polytheistic religion Monarchy/Dynasty: ruled by a single family (Shang/Zhou) Zhou claims Mandate of Heaven, or divine right to rule Bronze Silk Characters (each symbol represents an idea) Oracle bones

19 Turn and Talk SHOW ME! What as one similarity between the ancient civilizations of Egypt and China? a. They both had a democratic government b. They both believed in one god c. They both had written forms of communication d. They both carried on trade with the Americas
