Es el séptimo hijo de Tau y Kerana, también conocido como Lobison en Argentina, se lo describe como un enorme perro negro que come cadáveres de cementerios, se dice que la mayor parte del tiempo es una persona normal que llegado cierto día (se dice que son los martes o los viernes de luna llena). Este mito es muy similar al del Hombre lobo, de hecho pienso que podrían ser el mismo. Una creencia popular que envuelve a este mito es que si en una familia donde se tubo 7 hijos, todos varones, el ultimo de ellos será un Luisón a menos que sea ahijado del Presidente de la Republica. Se dice que se lo puede matar con una bala de plata (como con los hombres lobo) o una bala vendecida.
This resource includes five engaging Early Man learning stations that students can rotate through in small groups. Each learning station (or center) is designed to give students engaging and exciting learning experiences to practice, enrich, review, and enhance their learning. Students will visit each station with a small group and complete tasks and assignments Check this out! Students will complete their work on flame shapes that they will transform into a 3-D fire. They’ll “build” elements of the 3-D fire while they progress through the stations. Working both independently and with their small groups, students will have multiple opportunities to develop their understanding of Early Man while they investigate the Paleolithic Era, the Neolithic Era, The Great Migration, and elements of a civilization. Then, they'll cut out their work and assemble a 3-D fire to display on their desks, around the classroom, or even slip into their folders to refer to throughout the school year. ABOUT THE LEARNING STATIONS: STATION 1: PALEOLITHIC ERA First, students learn about archaeologists and anthropologists. Then, they’ll read a passage about the Paleolithic Era. Finally, they’ll answer short-answer questions on flame shapes. STATION 2: NEOLITHIC ERA At this station, students learn about the Great Migration and the Neolithic Agricultural Revolution. They’ll showcase their learning by completing fill-in-the-blank tasks on flame shapes. STATION 3: NEOLITHIC AGRICULTURAL REVOLUTION Students read mini-passages about agriculture and the domestication of animals. Then, they’ll show their understanding by completing cause and effect statements on a flame shape. STATION 4: PALEOLITHIC vs. NEOLITHIC AGES Students will read passages about the Paleolithic and Neolithic Ages. Then, they’ll cut out and sort facts associated with each age. Finally, they’ll glue the facts on the flame shape. STATION 5: FEATURES of CIVILIZATIONS First, students will read a mini-passage about civilizations. Then, they’ll divide reading cards amongst their group members and learn about the 8 critical features of civilizations. Finally, they’ll add facts to their flame shape. VOCABULARY Students will collect the definitions for 12 critical words while at each station. They’ll add the definitions the ring of rocks needed for the 3-D fire. ABOUT THE 3-D FIRE PROJECT: The discovery of fire was important in the development of Early Man. As students rotate through the 5 learning stations, they’ll work to create different elements of the 3D fire shape. After they complete their work, they’ll cut out the shapes, glue them together, and assemble a dynamic symbol of Early Man filled with their learning. It’s super easy to create, and the “wow factor” can’t be beat! INCLUDED IN THIS DETAILED RESOURCE: This resource is absolutely turn-key! Everything you need is included! Station Implementation Guide Station Grade Tracker Station Vocabulary Worksheet Station Table Labels (5) Teacher Resources - Detailed Station Overview and Set-Up Guides (6) Station Materials (reading passages, directions, reading cards, student directions, flame-shaped worksheets) Step-by-Step guide for make the 3-D fire Keys (for all station activities) You may also like: Ancient Mesopotamia Learning Stations and 3D Ziggurat Ancient Egypt Learning Stations and Interactive Poster!
