The aim of anthropology is to use a broad approach to gain an understanding of our past, present, and future and address the problems humans face in biological, social, and cultural life. This course will explore the evolution, similarity, and diversity of humankind through time. It will look at how we have evolved from a biologically and culturally weak species to one that has the ability to cause catastrophic change. Topics: 1. What anthropologists do 2. Culture and Language Why Humans are Special 3. Human Evolution: How We Got Here 4. The Human Animal: Who We Are 5. All About Food: What We Do in Order to Eat 6. Material Culture: How Humans are Handy 7. Family ties and Social Bonds: What Keeps Us Together 8. Religion: What We Believe The course is structured so that information will be presented, then students and teacher will discuss the learning. Knowledge will be assessed through learning checks, quizzes, or Kahoot-style reviews. My style is that of teaching joyfully, exuding enthusiasm about the topic, and piquing the interest of my students through dynamic presentations and discussion topics. I create PowerPoints with modern pictures and frequent questions posted to check for learning. Occasionally, we will use Nearpod, which allows for students to actively participate and reflect on the learning as the topic is presented.

Orientación para padres
Parents should be aware that one of the topics is evolution, which is taught from a scientific basis. If the topic of religion and evolution comes up, I will respectfully refer students to their parents for guidance.
With that being said, I do have extensive experience teaching students with many questions about the conflict that exists and I am able to frame the discussion in a way that is respectful of the questioner as well as the other students in the class.
Lista de útiles escolares
No additional supplies are needed. I do recommend either a virtual or physical folder to keep resources and handouts organized.
