    Do you think the light bulb is amazing? I really think so! Read on to find out more about Thomas Edison’s greatest invention! It helps you see in the dark. Now a days, to turn on a light bulb, you flip the switch. The light bulb helps almost everyone in the world. That’s why they say “Thomas Edison lights up the world”. I think this is the greatest invention created by Thomas Edison because than we wouldn’t have a lot of light. Also, other sources of light are pretty hard to use. This is why I think the light bulb is the best invention by Thomas Edison.

    Have you ever thought of a world without light? I have and it’s not pretty. Thanks to Thomas Edison we don’t have to live like that. The light bulb gives a brilliant amount of light to anybody in a dark place using a carbon filament to light it up, a light bulb can light up a whole room. It can help anybody, but mostly people in dark spaces. The light bulb is the best, because it is reliable. Also without light it would be very hard to use most of Edison’s other inventions. That is why the light bulb is the best.

    Have you got an X-Ray? I have they are pretty cool! An X-Ray is a machine that can take a picture of your bone. I think this is best invention of all time. The X- Ray takes pictures of your body. An this is how your work it you bush a button on the computer that is hooked up to the X-Ray. The X-Ray helps doctors. Plus to see what is wrong. In my opinion I think it was a great idea. Doctors in Edison’s time really needed it. I really hope you like it.

      Your paragraph really, in my opinion, is a really awesome paragraph. Do you really just need to BUSH a button? What did you mean when you said "I REALLY HOPE YOU LIKE IT."? The same thing I said to Justin, it is a really short paragraph but it gives a lot of information in it's sentences. You really did a good job han han!

    Have you ever heard of wireless electricity? I think the wireless electricity is the best invention Thomas Edison made. Wireless electricity helps us so we don’t have to pay money for the wires. Wireless electricity helps us have to have no things with wires wireless Wireless electricity is the best invention because you don’t have to have wires for it.

    What does an x-ray do? It will let you see your bones in your body and animals’ body too. X-rays also help doctors fix problems of patients if something is wrong, and will see if something is miss-placed, stuck or broken. This is Thomas Edison’s best invention. A reason that this is the best invention is that the x-ray takes pictures of your bones to see if everything is in good shape. Another reason is that it will help people who fix bone problems. It is a great invention to help with your bones. It will help everybody too. I think this is the best by Thomas Edison because it is helpful to people who help with bones this is an invention mostly for bones, and if Thomas Edison didn’t invent this we would not have it today

    What do you think Thomas Edison’s best invention is? Well if you’re thinking of the medical X-ray I am to, and it’s also my favorite invention. The medical X ray takes pictures of your bones. The medical X-ray helps people and animals. I think it’s the best because it can save people and animal’s lives. That’s why I think it’s the best.

    Click, click, click. The universal stock printer, in my opinion, is Thomas Edison’s best invention. The universal stock printer is designed to help the workers in stores so that they can do other things while the universal stock printer is printing the same share prices at one time. The universal stock printer works by printing out copies of the same share prices all at once. The universal stock printer helped Edward Calahan by making him thousands of dollars, as to Edison as well when people gave him the credit for what inventor Edward Calahan’s work had done for workers, which also means that Edison did not invent the stock printer. This is why, in my opinion, the universal stock printer is Thomas Edison’s best invention.

    Ring, ring, ring! Yes that is a telephone, but have you heard of the phonograph? This is Thomas Edison’s best invention. This invention records messages .This is how it works you record a message then when you come back to work crank the hand crank and you hear the message. The phonograph helps workers record messages so the next day the workers don’t forget what to do. This is the best invention because phones now grew from the phonograph. Another reason is some people fainted they were so astonished. I hope you like Thomas Edison’s best invention.

    What is the kind of light around? It’s not the sun, not the moon or nor the stars. It’s the light bulb the lightest, brightest, shiniest light around. This was invented by Thomas Edison. The light bulb is his best invention as I think.
    The light bulb gives you light so you can see in your home. The heat inside the light bulb is so hot that it makes it glow. The light bulb helps everyone in the world. The light bulb is the best invention because it brings light to everyone.
    And that concludes my essay on the light bulb I hope you liked it.

    Have you ever broken a bone? If you have, an X-ray has told the doctors where your broken bone is. The medical X-ray is Thomas Edison’s best invention. The invention takes pictures of your bones. The medical X-ray helps people and animals. I think it is the best because it helps fix broken bones and viruses. That is why I think the X-ray is Thomas Edison’s best invention.

    Have you ever thought about if we didn’t have light bulbs? The world wouldn’t be lit and pretty. But thanks to Thomas Edison the world is lit up and pretty! I think the light bulb is Thomas Edison’s best invention. The light bulb helps people see so they don’t bump into each other. The light bulb works by an electric current that flows through the light bulb which makes the filament gets to hot that it glows. The light bulb helps people see at night. The light bulb is the best because the light bulb is not super bright that it will blind you. The light bulb is also the best when Thomas Edison was born because they only had candles. That’s why I think the light bulb is Thomas Edison’s best invention.

    Did the light bulb change the world? The answer is yes because the light bulb helps us see. The filament light up our home. The light bulb helps the world because it helps kids do homework and teachers teach. My option on the light bulbs is it helps us see at night it also helps me have a good education this is why the light bulb is the best invention of Tomas Edison.

    Which do you think is the best invention of Thomas Edison’s? I think it’s the light bulb. It glows so you can see. When an electric current flows in a light bulb, it gets so hot it glows. There should be no air inside the light bulb when it is working. Anyone who needs a light can use a light bulb. So you can see. In my opinion the light bulb is the best invention of Thomas Edison .If you didn’t have the light bulb you would not be able to see. When it is dark and you turn on the light bulb there is light. That is why I like the light bulb.

    Have you ever listed to music on an ipod? I have, and thanks to Thomas Edison we have ipods.and that’s to Thomas Edison is the best invention of Thomas Edison is the phonograph. What does it do? The phonograph could record anything you want. All you have to do is talk into the mouth hole turn the crank and listed to what you said. The phonograph could help the government record important meetings, so if they wanted to look back on a meeting. This invention is the best because it led to the iPods, and that’s why the best invention of Thomas Edison is the phonograph.

    Do you like to write in fancy letters? I like to write in fancy letters. The electric pen is Thomas Edison’s best invention because it helps you write easily. The pen works by a motorized needle. The owner writes and the needle creates a stencil and fills it in with an ink press. This pen helps people in businesses’. It helps people fill out papers faster and cooler. This is the best invention because I like to write faster and cooler. I also like it because without a copier it would take forever to make copies. I hope you like the electric pen as much as I do.

    What do you think is Thomas Edison’s best invention? The one I think is his best invention is the fire stone tire. The first reason is that the fire stone tires are helpful because if you get your tires changes and then you start to dive and then you reek and your car caught on fire your new tires wouldn’t. It would work so you don’t waste money also .It helped anyone who needs to drive and go place. This is the best because it helped lots of people go place and do stuff. That’s why the fire stone tires are Thomas Edison’s best invention.

    You’re probably wondering who invented the x-ray. Thomas Edison did in 1896.The X-ray is the best invention Thomas Edison made in my opinion. The X-ray scans people body. How does it work well a form of electromagnetic energy put in to technology to useful use creating an X-ray. The helps doctors to see a person’s body. I pick this because the X-ray helps you get better if something is broken .It can also scan pets and animals. That is why the X-ray is the best invention he invented.

    Did you ever hear of the electric pen well I’m sure you have. I think the electric pen is the best invention that Thomas Edison invented. The electric pen uses a needle that can carve stencils that can help makes copies of documents. This is how it works by you write the letter or number then it carves the stencil. The electric pen helps business people make documents now it helps us make stencils. In my opinion I think the electric pen is the best invention that Thomas Edison invented. I hope you pick the electric pen.

    Black, white, glowing screen Right an x-ray, that’s what I’m thinking of. In my opinion the medical x-ray is Tomas Edison’s best invention of all time. The medical x-ray has a board that you put on the angered body part and you will see the body part . I think the medical x-ray is the best because it could help doctors and surgeons do their job .Also because it is a very clever idea. And that’s why I think the medical x-ray is the best invention of all time

    Black, rubber, and round. I am talking about firestone tires. I Think firestone tires are one of the best invention of Thomas Edison. If we didn’t have tires the wheels would be scraping off the ground, and there would be sparks. It helps any type of thing that has tires like a bus bike car, and a plane, or a jet. Anyone who uses these types of transportation. I think this the best invention because cars would catch on fire because sparks would come out the back of the wheel. I think this is the best invention because they would slide if they didn’t have any tires. Thomas’s greatest invention was firestone tires.
