Alexander graham bell is most credited for the invention of the telephone. Bell is also known for his inventions for a metal detector, a metal jacket that helped people breathe, and an audiometer that helped detect hearing problems.

 Alexander Graham Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on March 3, His father was a elocutionist or speech expert and teacher. Bell was already meant for the life he had once he was born because, his father was a elocutionist or speech expert and teacher. His first invention, was at the age of 12. His machine could clean wheat grains and remove the husks.  His mother began to lose her hearing on the year of his first invention. His mother’s hearing had a major influence on his creations down the road. Later on that year his father took him to see an "automation machine" that mocked the sound of the human voice. He became interested in speech and language at this time.

 Bell’s family moved to London, while Bell stayed in Scotland and became a teacher of elocution and music, when he was only 16. He kept that job for 2 years. He joined his older brother Melville as a student at the University of Edinburgh. He experienced illnesses from exhaustion and his health kept him on bed rest most of the time. Edward, his younger brother, was also sick with tuberculosis. After his brother Edward died, Bell returned home to Scotland because he couldn’t handle his sickness, school, and a death.

Bell’s telephone and other inventions were all based on other people besides himself. Bell created his inventions to help other people that really need what they didn’t have. All of Bell’s inventions were created upon technology. Bell’s list goes on and on about what his inventions have in common but the differences? Bell didn’t focus on one body area. He focused on ears and breathing. Bell was nice enough to create an invention to find metal objects. Metal had nothing to do with the ears and breathing he started to focus on.

The telephone is still in use today. Kids, teens and adults use telephone all over the world to keep in touch with other people. Models from then and now have greatly changed. It was once just a spinning knob connected to a piece of metal but now it is varied with touch screens, flip phone and full key boards. All of his inventions are still in use today but the one most used is defiantly the telephone.

Alexander Graham Bell refused to have a telephone in his study, fearing it would distract him from his scientific work. He didn’t have the middle name “Graham” until he turned 11 when his father gave it to him as a birthday present.

 Edmund is most famous for the name of Halley’s comet however he is also an inventor. Halley invented the diving bell. The diving bell help divers get to the bottom of the ocean in a faster pace.

 Halley was born in Shoreditch, England. His father, Edmond Halley Sr. was a wealthy soap-maker in London. As a child, Halley was very amused with math. Halley was the “runt” of his family. He was not looked at one of the greats out of his family!!

 He studied from 1673 at The Queen's College, in Oxford. While an undergraduate, Halley loved to published papers on the Solar System. Halley married Mary Tooke in 1682 (he just got out from his second college) and settled in Islington. The couple had three children. He spent most of his time on lunar observations, but was also interested in the problems of gravity

 His findings/inventions aren’t very similar. However you may see them as opposites but I don’t. I noticed they both have to do with gravity. I also noticed they both had to do with dark cold places.  The differences between the two are numerous. One, they are opposites. He went from the stars and beyond to studying the lowest point of the earth.

 The diving Bell is defiantly still used today by so many divers across the world. While changes have been made the importance stays the same.  Halley’s comet gets everyone so fascinated when they here. I have never seen it but I really wish to see it at least once.

It last appeared in the inner Solar System in 1986 and will return again sometime in 2061 (start charging your camera battery). Halley’s comet was the first comet to be recognized as having a periodic orbit.

 Thomas Jefferson was the Untied State’s third president as well as a famous inventor of many things. 1.dumbwaiters for wine bottles 2.the Great Clock 3.the hideaway bed 4.macaroni and cheese, not to mention 5.a macaroni extruding device 6.the pedometer 7.the plow moldboard of least resistance 8.the polygraph (not a lie detector, but a copying machine) 9.a revolving bookstand 10.the spherical sundial 11.an improved swivel chair 12.the wheel cipher

 Thomas Jefferson was born on April 13, 1743, in Albemarle County, Virginia. He spent his childhood walking along the woods and studying his books.

 None of Jefferson’s invention’s really matched except that he did all of these when he was our president.  Jefferson’s inventions have so many difference’s. some of his inventions just came from nowhere such as the hide-away-bed.

 Jefferson's inventions are still in use, the swivel chair I was using to write this project. The hide-a-way- bed is right behind mean and his macaroni and cheese will always be my favorite side at dinner!! What makes his invention’s so different is that he managed to make the united states a stronger country and still make stuff like the dumbwaiters for wine bottles.

 Thomas Jefferson is still currently on the two dollar bill.  Jefferson offered his personal library as a replacement when his neighborhood library burned down. In 1815, the Library of Congress was restocked — with Jefferson’s 6,487 books.

 Hope you enjoyed!!
