Based on previous lesson, the development of humans

had persisted for millions of years. These evolutionary
processes have been greatly influenced by natural
phenomenon such as climate change, natural disasters,
or the development of other species. In your perspective,
would human evolutionary development still push
through if these natural phenomena did not occur?
2. Motivation Look around you. Could you identify tools that are available to you now?
(2 minutes)
The teacher will present a picture.

What are these tools?

What are they used for?
Based on the photo presented how did you classify them as tools?

3. Presentation The teacher will present a story of the Ice Man and the Alps. Students will listen
(3 minutes) and analyze the story.
