Can you hear me?

We put some inventions on a timeline last Friday to get a better understanding of time. Then we sorted ways that people use water in the past (before people understood how to use electricity) and now with machines and appliances which use electricity.

Here is our timeline. Thanks to the people who investigated some things around the house and found out when they were first used by people.

Ryan found out about the telephone and he had a string phone that you could make in his 'Inventions' book. We made some today, we had a poem about ears and sound. We used the phones and we made a recording using garage band so we could see sound waves. It was lots of silly fun. Not everyone wanted to be recorded but we all had a chance and we all loved to listen to it play back.
