In Social Studies we have been learning about present day technologies and how they have changed over the years. How have computers changed and evolved over the years? What has the primary function of the computer always been? What is the sole purpose of a fridge? How have fridges evolved over time?

Yesterday, we worked together in groups to accurately sequence the evolution of the telephone. Do you know in what year the Bell Telephone Company was created and by whom? Did you know that in 1989, the first flip phone was made and it cost approximately $3,000?! When do you think the first automatic mobile phone system for cars was developed? Our young learners thoroughly enjoyed this activity and were amazed at the evolution of technology over the years.
