Thomas Edison was such a neat person! He invented so many things. The most important thing he invented was the lightbulb. We got to observe and see how our own homemade lightbulb worked! We watched a great Storybots video to learn all about how Thomas Edison made the lightbulb! We learned a lot about Martin Luther King Jr and what his dream was all about today. This man was very important to American History. We did a couple really great activities to help us understand his importance. First, we watched a BrainPop Jr. video about him. We did an awesome activity with eggs to understand how even though we look different on the outside, we are the same on the inside. We also learned about the differences between things that are "just" and things that are "unjust" by sorting different statements and talking about what it is about them that makes them fair or unfair. The entire time that we have been learning about these important historical figures, we have been making personal connections to them. There have been some amazing connections to these people.
