    What I know about cavemans is they got their clothes from animal skin.Next caveman took showers with dirty water,and with mud.Finally what I know about caveman is they didn’t have houses so had to build their own which is called caves.What I want to know about caveman is how did they enjoy themselves.I think there was no T.V.,no video games,no blankets,and no beds.

    What I like to learn about cavemen is how they hunted food.I also like to learn how they made shelter.I also want to learn how they made tools and other cool stuff.

    The only thing I know about cave men is that they were born before us and that they live in caves.What I would like to learn about them is how long they survived?What did they do all day?How could they survive with different climates?I think before electricity began it would be pretty boring and clueless.I also think that they would just walk around and see anything interesting to find out?!

    I know that cavemen lived in caves, and don’t exist anymore. How did they survive, I mean they didn’t have food or water? I know they lived in caves, but where in the United States? Why didn’t they travel anywhere? I wouldn’t like to be a cavegirl, because I wouldn’t have anything to eat,dink,or play with. I wouldn’t have clothes, pillows, blankets,and most importantly, I wouldn’t have a family!!!

    I love learning abot ancient things especially cavemen.What I know about cavemen is that most of the cavemen used to live in the caves.Another thing that I know about cavemen is that for tools they had to build their own wich they build with materials that are from the nature. The last thing that I know from cavemen is they got there clothes from animal skin that they had killed them themselves.I wuold like to know where would cavemen sleep on.I would also like to know where cavemen would to take a shower.Would they never take a shower.I think that along time ago when there was no T.V or any other electronic devices would actually be the same because we would’t even know that they were going to exsist.That is what I know about cavemen.

    I know that cavemen invented fire, when they invented fire or (stumbled upon it) they ood and awd at the sight of it. They thought that the gods gave it to them for warmth, protection from the cold nights, and for other useful things. I would like to find out what they did to cook their food, what they ate their food with, what they played with, and hunted with. I think it would have bored the heck out of me I wouldn’t get to rest on a nice comfortable couch after a hard day’s work of school. I wouldn’t be able to watch TV anymore for pleasure or for a time consuming project. I wouldn’t have the toys to play with like video games, computers, phones, drawing books, and a million other things I have. But I would have the pleasure of hunting, playing different types of games, doing other things like learning new chants or songs, and to not have homework or school I wouldn’t have to be that smart but at least a little bit to know what I’m doing or how to do something. Last but not least I would love to speak another language.

    I know that cavemen had to eat buffalo,and make clothing from the buffalo they had to get sticks and rocks to make fire not just get a match or a liter tomake fire.Alot of people say that cavemen were dum how do they know that the caveman were dum.And if they were dum how did they know how to start fires and how make the ciothing for them seleves.If I lived in the cave with the cavemen I will hate living millions of years ago no tv,games,paper,computers,books,no shools,and no good clothing or food.So I think thats what I know obout cavemen.

  8.   Nayeli Says:

    I would like to know how did they servied in there caves.I would also like to know what do they eat.If i lived like they did i turn crazy because i wouldn’t listen to music or see tv.I wouldn’t be able to talk to friends in the phone.

  9.   salvador Says:

    Cavemen used to live in caves. They never had paper to draw so they used the walls. They did not get to watch T.V that must have bin always bord in there caves. I want to know why they never thought of making electronics. Did they ever fight with dinosours in the past? Did they die the same way that the dinosours died. I think that I am going to have fun studing about cavemen.

  10.   marisella Says:

    Cave Men had to hunt for food, make there own clothing,and make there own clothing.What I would like to learn how they made fire,what they ate,and how they lived without all this stuff we have now.

  11.   Somone Cole Says:

    I think millions of years ago that the caveman were not bored they always had something to do. I want to know what did they eat? how did they survive? did they have clothes? did they make them? thats what i’d like to know about cavemen.

  12.   jacqueline siguenza Says:

    caveman are people who lived years ago.They did not have what we have now like they did not have pencils,desks,T.Vs,books,schools,and electronics.There houses were caves.And ther tools were different they actually made there tools.They got a stick and a rock and they put them together and that was like there hammer.I really like to learn more about caveman because maybe there is something that is very cool about them!!!!!!!!

  13.   P,Wendy Says:

    I`ve learned about landforms ,but know I`m going to learn about cavemen.The thing I know about cavemen is that they didn`t talk english.They lived in caves.They were dirty and they also didn`t have what to wear.I would like to learn what they ate,what they did,and I would like to learn what they thought of being alone.What I think it was like millions of years ago it might have been lonley.Or it might have been scary being alone.They might have been smelly because they didn`t bath.That`s what I know about cavemen or would like to know.

  14.   Stephanie Cortes Says:

    I don’t know much stuff about cavemen.First I think monkeys went to cavemen and to us.Cavemen people were not so smart as we are.Some cave people didn’t know what fire was.I know a little more things about cavemen.Cavemen wifes’ got treated badly.They did all the stuff cook,sometimes hunt,and clean the house.I don’tknow how am going to survive with no Tv.I’m probaly going to be very bored.Nothing to do maybe play catch with a rock.Or maybe help my mom clean the house.

  15.   David Hernandez p5 Says:

    Cave men did not know anything about computers,showers,hair gel,and spray.How they survived in the hot dry area whith no air conditioning,how did they take showers,and where they sleep.It was boring because there was no tv,video games,and no computers.What did they eat how did they eat and where did they eat.How did they sleep where did they sleep what did they sleep whith.How did they learn about things.

  16.   Daniel Juarez Says:

    I dont know much about cavemen I only know a few things obout them. I know that they used weapons to hunt they used spears and knives.They used wood and bamboo to make them.weapons that are usally sharpened but if the weapon is made by bamboo, cavemen fasten a sharp piece of bronze or a sharp piece of obsidian.I’d like learn about how they lived, survieved,and how they turned to us. I bet it was hard to live and survive. Like how they survived without television or how they survived the ice age? I wonder how the first caveman survived, it must of been hard.

  17.   Elizabeth Says:

    I know that cavemen lived in caves because back then there was no houses and no technology.I want to know many things about how they survived. I am curios about how they cured themselves
    when they were sick and how they survived cold winters in those cold caves.I think that with no technology I would survive because I love to go out into nature, and also I know that back then it was not invented so people did not suffer for it so most likely I would only suffer if i was used to using a lot of technology and then they took it away.

  18.   Jeremiah Dixon .P.5 Says:

    What I know about cavemen is that millions of years ago, cavemen had hard things to do like, hunting,walking miles away from their caves, it was hard for them to find food.I also know that cavemen didn’t know how to read or write. What I would like to know about cavemen is if they either evolved or died. I would also want to know what did they usually eat,and also if they lived with the dinosaurs.I think millions of years ago it was a very boring and quiet place to live in because there was no cars, electricity or music. It would be very interesting if we go back in time and see everything the cavemen did to survive.

  19.   Stephanie Paz Says:

    I only know very little about cavemen.I know that there was not any malls,t.v,computers,houses,and many things more.I would not imagine myself in that possion it would be crazy.What I would like to know about cavemen would be how our life change and how it would be like.There are so many questions I have about cavemen because I know so little.

    I know that cavemen dont exits anymore,but you can say that they still exist beacause well look at you.Some people even scientist think that we go from cavemen,to monkeys,to aps,and HUMANS.I would like to know if we really are cavemen.I also want to how cavemen survived by them selfs and how we mad WORDS to communicate.I dont know beacause i guess i would have to learnmyself.I think it was hard to build shelter when you have no technology on how to do it like (lessons).

  22.   erick.f Says:

    What I know about cavemem is that they dont got no electronics,and nothing not even bathrooms all they have are caves and rocks.And what I want to know about cavemen is that how can they survive without baths,books,eletronics, houses,and other good stuff.That is what I know and what I want to learn about cavemen.

  23.   Jazmin R. Says:

    Back a million years ago.Caveman did not have schools tencils to write with.they never had showers or T.V.’S and other great stuff we have now it was hard for cavemen to do all the things without their writing tencils without having stoves and evryting we have now. I would like to expirience the things they had to deal with it and see how they lived so million years ago i wish people would understand beng a caveman or cave women was not easy.I wish i can travel back in time and see what they were dealing with and see how it is being a cavewomen.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  24.   Robert. S Says:

    Well i know that they had no no games or books.They had no beds or blankets. They used to sleep in a cave.I want to know what they ate,what they drank,and what they what they do to have fun.I think it might be boring.I think it might be nasty becouse you never took a shower.

  25.   castillo catherine Says:

    What I know about cavemen is alittle but I know that they used to live in caves. they didn’t have any technology back then.So it was hard for them to live they might have no clothes.What I think life would be without technology or anything except rocks it would be terrible.I think it would be terribl because how are we going to be able to hunt for food or to live expacaly with animals everywhere.Thats what I think leaving like a caveman would feel.

  26.   Regina Lopez P1 Says:

    I know that caveman lived in caves because they didn’t have a house to live in. I want to know what they got food for everyone? How come they didn’t get hurt when they walked around when they were barefoot? How did they learn how to cook? I think in those years it was really hard because there were no phones. Also that there were no docters to help us when were sick. Also there was no t.v so we could know if it’s going to rain or if it’s going to be super hot. Also how did they keep there food fresh or warm.

  27.   jose jesus Says:

    What i know about caveman is that they dont have houses and cloths or malls. They sleep without pillows in the dark. The caveman have to live in the caves. They have to kill everyday to stay alive they could do alot of things. They have to hunt hunt everyday for food. I think that is sad to do there and stay in the dark. The protect them from the winter and animals

  28.   gumersindo Says:

  29.   manuel.b Says:

    How did they comunicate with each other when they ahd no cellphones or house phones.I will not be cool because they did not get to take a bath or shower and they will stink.It will be boring because there will not be cable to watch cartoons.They did not have any computers so they can not go on the enternet.

  30.   kevin Says:

    I know that caveman did’t have tv,houses,clothes,books…or malls.They had to kill dinosaurs to get food.Also they had to take a risk and go get some water from a lake.Plus they had to sleep on the ground near a fire in a deep and dark cave.That is all that I know about caveman.I want to know everything about caveman in my class.
