Today we began the unit on the Industrial Revolution. We were asked to list all the machines we used today, and in the past. We realized that very little is done in a day without machines. We listed a calculator, coffee maker, alarm clock, TV, and a toaster, just to name a few. We discussed how technology still will change our lives in the future.
