This week we are learning all about sequencing of events. So we decided to take a look at the newspaper and how it was made. Now the interesting part is we are looking at the newspapers from the 1700s. WOW times have changed!!!!!
Then:
*The printer made words by pulling individual letters and forming them into words.
*When they printed a page they had to hang it up to dry before passing it out.
* 240 pages printed per hour
*They had to have a TON of patiences!!!
Now we have noticed that newspapers today have color, pictures, and cartoons. We have requested for a guest to come visit us this week. Hopefully we will be able to share more information once our guest teaches us!
