How did the development of agriculture affect life in America?
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER: Students should be able to discuss what life in America was like before the advent of agriculture. They should be able to discuss hunting and gathering societies of Paleo-Indians and Archaic cultures. Students should be able to identify connections between natives' ability to engineer crops such as maize to generate larger quantities of food to enable a more stable and culturally distinct existence. Stronger students will note the development of art and craft skills and may recognize that these ancient heritages of America are still evident in our society today.
