A Deserted island

Think for Yourself

1. To get the fruit out of the tree I would break down a small skinny tree and poke the fruit off the tree!

2. To make a bowl for water I would grab a coconut and crack it in half with a rock.

3. For long term needs I would need a bowl for water, a shelter for sleep for short term needs I would need a wooden spear and a fire pit. I would need shelter so I wouldn’t freeze to death. The other long term need would be a bowl for water so I could store fresh water. I would only need a spear for a short term need, because I could also get food with my hands such as fruit. I would only need a fire pit as a short term need because my shelter would provide enough heat to keep me alive. I would not need to cook all my meat because the meat from the wild animal wouldn’t have been fed any by- products.

Homo sapiens sapiens

The name of the group you are about to hear about is the homo sapiens sapiens. Homo sapiens sapiens date back to an estimated 10000 years ago, and are still here today as the only surviving species of humans! These species of humans are not as stocky and built as some of the older species of humans and have almost no sexual dimorphism between males and females. Homo sapiens sapiens are famous for the ability to make tools. The ones of the present have made game boys, computers and some of the old homo sapiens sapiens have made baskets and ovens. Homo sapiens sapiens have developed skills to use their inventions to their advantage, such as planes and cars used to travel places in hours that would could take years to walk. Homo sapiens sapiens are the most dominant species of animal in the world and have no predator!
