Think creatively! Invent something new.


Eli Whitney was born December 8, 1765.  He invented a cotton gin that automatically separated cottonseed from the cotton fiber.  His invention had a tremendous impact on cotton production in the South, and cotton became a profitable crop for farmers.  Almost everything we use had to be invented by someone.  Think of and write about something you could invent that would be helpful or entertaining.  Learn more about the cotton gin, history, and science at this link:www.historyforkids.org

    if i could i would stop the fights between the world. so we could all live a great life and not be sad. people died cause of the that 10000people and more died. and every time i hear news like that it hurts me cause i feel the pain. and only wish that all these things would stop. i just wanna know why are they killing each other, why they do that?? its like sisters brothers killing each other. i just wish that silly dangerous stuff would stop.
    but i would never make it stop never cause that would never happen .

    -if i could create anything i would create a new year and i will call it family fun day. in that year every family will go somewhere and have fun for the rest of the day. and all the families together and everyone get to have some fun!!

    -and i would create a school that would make the students learn more, and no uniforms. and i would name it "young learners S middle school".
    the S(student) and if you read it all together it will say "young learners students middle school".
    by the way i just created a name i

    couldn't think of anything else "bye".
