A Day in the Life of a Serrano Child
What kind of things happen to you on a regular day? You probably wake up in the morning, go to school, eat lunch, do your chores, and spend time with your friends. The life of a historical Serrano boy or girl was similar. They too did chores, spent time with their friends, and lived with their families.
But the Serrano's lives were very different than our own in many ways. They used the natural resources that were available to them to make their food, clothing, tools and homes. The Earth provided all that they needed, and they used the Earths resources wisely and with respect.
How were the lives of the historical Serrano similar and different than ours? Think about this question as you complete this activity.
