Research for My Make

The research for this make was difficult to begin. The history of lamps is not a thrilling topic, and everyone else seems to be on the same page with that. Books on the other hand, have a very interesting history. Books have been made out of very weird and strange things, and the oldest book in the world was just discovered a few months ago. That is definitely pretty cool! 

This project can integrate research in multiple ways, and research can be taken from multiple sources, that you wouldn't think of for a normal research project. I was able to get research from YouTube videos, Inscrutables, and also just pictures. The research has also been fun too. It is interesting to see how much books and lamps have changed overtime. The things humans used to do really surprise me, such as making lamps out of birds. 

Another cool thing that I discovered is that a lot of different food can conduct electricity. Oranges and potatoes and any animal with a nervous system can conduct electricity too. Like frogs!

I like this project, and I really think that there is cool history.
