Essay

|
13)
|
(1 point) Read the passage. Use
the passage and what you have learned to write
an essay describing how the Hohokam adapted to
their environment.
| The Hohokam settled in the desert of present-day Arizona. They found it
difficult to grow crops. As a result, they used a practice called irrigation. Irrigation uses
human-made canals or waterways to guide water from rivers to fields. Hohokam workers used sticks and
stone hoes to dig these paths. Using irrigation allowed the Hohokam to grow corn, beans, squash, and
cotton in the region where they settled. | |
Your
writing should:
• focus on what
the Hohokam did in order to adapt to their environment.
• use
facts and details to help the reader understand your points.
•
use correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, and capitalization. | |
