Week 2 - Ethnocentrism

Learning Goal: I will be able to analyze how the geography shaped early development of the Mesopotamian Civilization

Today, students learned the definition of ethnocentrism. This helped students connect with the cultures and civilizations we study. Next, students read an article about the Nacirema tribe. This showed students their own biases and misconceptions. Lastly, students predicted the demographics of the world if it was reduced down to 100 people. For example, 16 of the people would be unable to read or write.
