Inventions!








Santos Dumont, Thomas Edison, Guilhermo Marconi, Alexandre Graham Bell...Apesar de viverem em épocas distintas, esses homens marcaram seus nomes na história mundial por sua criatividade e ousadia. Eles revolucionaram o modo de vida da humanidade com a idealização do avião, da lâmpada, do rádio e do telefone, facilitando a rotina das pessoas e fazendo com que o progresso surgisse. 

O Year  4 está trabalhando a unidade “How the World Works”, explorando como os seres humanos tem a capacidade de aprimorar a tecnologia. Durante o mês de Agosto os alunos da quarta serie se aventuraram em pesquisar e conhecer a trajetoria de diversos inventores e suas invenções. Para reencarnar na pele dos inventores e na época correspondente, criaram uma dramatização em forma de dialogo e entrevista escolhendo seus inventores favoritos. Com suporte do Media Lab estarão filmando suas reportagens em grupo. Este trabalho é p/que as crianças, de uma forma lúdica, entrem em contato com a história geral e vejam a importância dessas criações em suas vidas. Desejamo-lhes muita criatividade e que se divirtam!

Early Life
Alexander Graham Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on March 3, 1847.
When he was only eleven years old, he invented a machine that could clean wheat.
Graham studied anatomy and physiology at the University of London, but moved with his family to Quebec,Canada in 1870.

Working with the Deaf
Bell soon moved to BostonMassachusetts.
In 1871, he began working with deaf people and published the system of Visible Hearing that was developed by his father. Visible Hearing illustrated how the tongue, lips, and throat are used to produce vocal sounds. In 1872, Bell founded a school for the deaf which soon became part of Boston University.

Telephone
Alexander Graham Bell is best known for his invention of the telephone. While trying to discover the secret to transmitting multiple messages on a single wire, Bell heard the sound of a plucked string along some of the electrical wire. One of Bell’s assistants, Thomas A. Watson was trying to reactivate a telephone transmitter. After hearing the sound, Bell believed he could send the sound of a human voice over the wire. After receiving a patent on March 7, 1876, for transmitting sound along a single wire, he successfully transmitted human speech on March 10th. Bell’s telephone patent was one of the most valuable patents ever issued.

National Geographic
Bell went on to invent a precursor to the modern day air conditioner, and a device called a “photophone” that enabled sound to be transmitted on a beam of light and on which today’s fiber optic and laser communication systems are based. In 1898, Alexander Graham Bell and his son-in law took over the National Geographic Society and built into one of the most recognized magazines in the world. Bell also helped found Science Magazine, one of the most respected research journals in the world.

Death

Alexander Graham Bell died August 2, 1922. On the day of his burial, in honor of Bell, all telephone service in the U.S. was stopped for one minute.
