Here you will write about your favorite hominid. The five hominids that we studied are: "Lucy", Handy Man, UpRight Man, Neanderthal and Wise Man (Homo Sapiens Sapiens).
Don't forget to hit ANONYMOUS AND WRITE YOUR NAME
Mr. Pitts-Dilley
PS. Great job on the exams Haiker, Andy, Brenda and Cristian (you rule)!!!
my favorite hominid was the "upright man", is because the "upright man" was the first hominid that made fire and because he could cook the meet and keep warm. Andy Rafael
my favorite hominid is the wise man,because he was the first modern human,in the those time he made more than 60 tools,and they were really smart,they could draw a lot of things like their culture.
brenda rudecindo
I think my favorite hominid is the wise man. First, the wise man is my favorite bacause he look more like us. Another reason is bacause he walked straight up just like us. Third reason, is because he makes better tools. The wise man was the first modern human.
By Haiker Feliz
