Thomas Edison

[Jennifer K]

I know a few of you out there are doing this title...we are making our way through sloooowly...just wandering how you are doing & if you are doing any fun go-alongs...(I am fishing for ideas! We just finished ch.9, but I need to go back & do the activities for ch. 8 & 9)

I live in Michigan. We went to Greenfield Village in Dearborn, MI where Thomas Edison's home and multiple workshops have been moved.

When I saw the many, many bottles that he had collected and labeled, I could not help but reply out loud.

This is about 1/3 of the bottles in the building. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9EoeT5P7lYI/SKtzSFES34I/AAAAAAAAALs/o7lyW98fdXg/s1600-h/Greenfield+Villiage+003.jpg

Tamie, those links are great! We have not done this title yet but I bookmarked these. I love the bottle pictures, very neat!

Thanks for posting this.

We're going ever so slowly too :) We've just been completely sidetracked by the Periodic table and a chemistry set I bought for them :)
