Benjamin Fraklinwas an inveneter
he inented eleterisidyand with out invenchenthere woudt be conputres,lights,phons,and no t.v.
The way that he invented it was not so smart he tack a cet tidet to a kiet stering and tied a riben to the end of a kited stering in the midl of a lining storm then he mout his nuck cl and saw elecri wavs
Benjamin Franklin discovered electricity. He used a key, some string, a kite, and lightning. He made this great invention dangerously. He could have gotten killed!
* * * * * * *
I think what he did was smart. Know why? Because it takes a lot of brains to make electricity. He knew a lot and I want to be like him. Think is smart of him. He probably knew he might get killed, but did he give up? NOOOO!!!!
* * * * * * *
So here's old Ben. Nothing much going on. He tries to make this, uh.....electricity. He tries gazillions(okay, maybe a little on the 'not really, maybe a thousand' side there)of times....until he finally got it!! Sometimes you have to try try again to get your dream.
* * * * * * *
Maybe your dream is to become a professional soccer player. Maybe you need a little bit more perseverance. Maybe you are close enough to your dream that you to realize, "I don't need to work as hard anymore." No way. Our buddy Ben here never gave up, or never let up on the perseverance.
* * * * * * *
Either should you. Okay. Let's say Ben here never invented electricity or never did what he
did. We wouldn't have... okay let's back up a little here. So we're saying Ben never invented the electric stuff.
* * * * * * *
We wouldn't have planes, cars, radios, CD players, speakers, sound systems, TV'S, lamps, computers, and so on.
Banjamin Franklin is was the first person to create electricity, he also created the light bulb. He made his great invention by using a kite and a key. He used the kite for the elctricity to go downit to the key, and if he would see a spark that means that there is electricity. That is how he created electricity. I think he was smart by making it because now that we have light and electricity we can have better food and make better food. It was also smart because we can have lights to see things a lot better. i also think that it was not smart. I think that it was not smart because he could gotten a really bad shock and could have gone to the hospital. Life is different now since Bengamin Franklin made electricity because we can see things better, use things better, and make things better. An exampe of seeing things better with electricity is when you are doing your homework, and you read you need to see thing better in order to do it. An example of using things better is an oven needs electtricity, so since the oven needs electricity we can make food better. An example of making things better is food, like hamburgers you can not eat them raw. I am so glad that Benjamin Franklin created the light bulb, and electricity.
Benjamin Franklin was the guy who created electricity. To make electricity he used a kite, a piece of string, and a key. He took the key and tied it to the string, and he took the string and tied that to the kite. I think that what he did was smart and was not so smart, I think that what he did was smart because he invented electricity. I think what he did was not so smart because he could have gotten electrocuted. Life is different now after Bejamin Franklin because we have things that run on batteries now.
Benjamin Franklin was a very famous inventor. Benjamin Franklin created the first power plant and the first light bulb. He also proved that there was electricity in lightning. He discovered that electricity was in lightning by taking a kite, string, and a key. It was a stormy day and Benjamin decided this would be a good day to try out his invention. First he tied the key to the first string then connected it to the kite. Then he tied the other string to the other side of the key. Next he flew the kite. His son was holding the kite so it would stay in the air. When the lightning came Benjamin stuck up his knuckle close to the key. When he did that there was a bolt if electricity that connected the key and his knuckle. There he proved that there was electricity in lightning.
I think Benjamin Franklin was both smart and not so smart. I think he was smart because he thought of something like that. I thought that he was not so smart because he could have been killed by a zap of lightning. If Benjamin Franklin wouldn't have thought of electricity there would be no lights, no Tv nothing that needed electricity. With out electricity there would be no fridges that worked or electric ovens or microwaves. You wouldn't be able to read what you are reading right now because computers take electricity. That is what would happen if we didn't have electricity.
Baenjamin Fanklin is a great inventor he inventdid many great things. One thing that he discovered was electricity. The way that he discovered it was he put a metel key on a kite string. During a storm he waited then it happened lightning hit the string then it went to the key.
as soon as he put he's finger up to it shocked him. Do you know what that proved? It proved that if he could take electricity he could put it in something else. so that is what he did. He soon put it in a light bulb. That was he's best invention ever. I think he was smart because he did so many great things but I think it was kind of dumb because he almost killed himself with the lightning.
If we didn't have him we wouldn't have light ok we would have light by candil. I for one I'm happy that he did that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Benjamin Franklin is a man who descovered electricity.hears how He descoverd electricity. First he went to his wife and said,"It is a good day to fly a kite." His wife thought he was crazy becuse there was a storm comeing. But Benjamin knew what he was doing.So he asked his son if he wanted to go with him. His son said,"yes." so Ben took a kite and a metal key.Ben's son did not know what the key was for but he will soon find out. Ben tied the key to the kite string and started to fly the kite. Suddenly lightning struck the kite and the key zaped Benjamin's hand and Ben and his son saw a spark.I think Benjamin Franklin is smart becuse it is not every day somone ddescovers somthing.
1.Benjamin Franklin is a person who invented the electricity and many other things.
2.Benjamin Franklin invented the electricity.
3.He made the electricity by going outside when there was lightning. So he went outside to fly his kite so he tied a key and a string on to the kite.So when there was lightning it would strike the key and Benjamin would put his nuckle to the key and he could see the electricity.So Benjamin did it it worked he and his son could see it.
4.I think what he did was smart because if he didn't do it we wouldent have anything electric.So we wouldn't have warm food or any thing.
5.How life is different is we have micerwaves and ovens.We also have dishwashers and alot of other electric stuff that they didn't have back then
Benjamin Frankl was a man who invented something.He invented the light bulb!He made it by electricity and alot of wire!It wasn't very smart because he could of shocked him self!Life is difern't because if we did not have electricity we could not have very many foods or any power or light!I'm glad that he invented it because if we didn't have it then we would not have very many things at all!I'm glad that he invantsd it!He was not very smart thow.He could of shocked him self like I menchend.I think that we are very luky to have power because other wise we wouldent have any ovens or any miker waves!I think that it was good to have electricity in our one houses to!He was luky not to get shoked thow.Electricity is a very good thing to have around here!There would not be any thing to cook or bake.It would of also been different if we didn't have him.I'm glad that we have electricity around here.I'm glad that we have it.Electricity is very inportant to alot of people like me!There would of had alot of things that would be different.We are glad that we have alot of electricity and alot of power.We wouldent have any power sorce or any thing to plog in.I think that it was a good choice.I'm glad that we have electricity and a lot of things like that.God thinked of somthing smart like that and that he didn't lrt Benjamin get shocked.
Benjamin Franklin was a great inventor. H was also a man who liked to try new things and did things some people would consider insane. So I guess you could call him a brave. He even invented the light bulb. But most importantly he discovered electricety. I am going to tell you how he invented it. First, he had to wait for a stormy day. Then,he took a kite and a key. Next,he waited for lightning. He tied the kite to the key. Then he saw a lightning bult hit the kite. The lightning traveled on the kite and when it hit the key he stuck his knuckle out and felt a shock. He had done it. He had discovered electricity. I think what he did was very smart and brave. I think that because I don't think anyone else could of thought of such a brilliant plan to discover that. Life would be so much more different if he hadn't discovered it. We would have to use candles instead of light bulbs imagine that in school the teacher would have to have a candle on all of our desks! Plus we wouldn't have computers. We would have to look every thing up in a dictionary for your whole life! So aren't you glad that he invented electricity. I sure am!
Benjamin Franklin is a very smart person. He is the one who discovered electricity. Well he did it on a rainy day. It was lightning outside so what he did was very dangerous. He took out a kite, a string, and a key. He started to fly the kite when lightning hit the kite causing electricity to go through the sting and hit the key! He reached out with his finger and touched the key. It shocked him and he realized that electricity can be used. Yes, I think it was smart and no, I don't think it was smart. Because he could have killed himself. But if he wouldn't have we wouldn't have computers or we wouldn't have a lot of things. Maybe Life wouldn't be to different because maybe someone else would have discovered it!!
Benjamin Franklin is the person who invented electricity.He made his great invention by taking a kite and a key then he tied them togather.Then he flew the kite then he touched the key and got a shock so that’s how he invented electricity. Yes I think what he did was very smart. Because there would be nothing to do and you would have to walk everywhere you go. Life would be much different if we hade no electricity. We would not have lights, cars, game boys, compurteres, ovens, microwaves, and anything that needs electricity. Now life is much better with electricity.
Benjamin Franklin is the person who invented electricity.He inveted it by fling a kite with a key on a rainy day.When lighting hit the key it gave him a shock and that was his great invention.I think Benjamin Franklin is smart because well the wold wouldn't be the same without electricity.We wouldn't have lights,some kinds of food,tvs,and a botch of other stuff we wouldn't be able to use.I am glad that Benjamin Franklin invented eletricity.
Benjamin Franklin was a man who I think opened the first electric power plant.
Benjamin Franklin had a great invention that he made. It was a rainy day I think in Pennsylvania when Ben Franklin thought it was a great day to try something. He was outside it was about to rain when his wife said Ben you should come inside it is about to rain. But Ben said it is a marvelous day because he was going to try something new. Ben had a kite a rope and a key . So when it was sprinkling he flew his kite and I think hoped that a lighting bolt would hit the kite. So when the bolt would hit the kite the kite would give the electricity to the rope to the key which Ben was holding. So Ben could see a spark of electricity. I don't think what he did was smart because the spark from the key could haved shocked Ben and he could have died.
I think life is different now after Ben Franklin because he found electricity.So if Ben Franklin wouldn't of found electricity there would be no lights and a lot of other stuff.
Gigi,
I'm glad that he invented the light bulb too!*
Benjamin Franklin was a man who lived a long, long time ago. Franklin did a very important thing, he discovered electricity. We may no think about it a whole bunch but we use electricity alot, and when i mean alot I mean ALOT. His idea was very great but maybe not so smart. Franklin's idea was to go outside when it was raining, tie a key on to the string of hi kite, and fly his kite wy up in the lightning. The lightning would touch the key. Next he would touch his knuckle against the key, and he would get a shock. Franklin's plan worked but it wasn't so smart because HE could get hit by the lightning. I really think we need electricity today because then we wouldn't even have machines!
benjamin franklin clalted eeleqtisity and got shack in the poses. He put a key on a sring and
got shogct and colected elegctisity.yes becus sins he did that we have cobetrs and stof .
now we can play gams on the conpeter and watch tv!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Benjamin Franklin an inventor he invented static electricity that is in lightning. To do so he got a kite and put a key on the string. Then he went out side in a storm he waited a long time but he finally lightning hit it he put his knuckle agents the key. It shocked him pretty hard. That’s how he made electricity!
I think that it was not the greatest idea because he could of died. But Benjamin had to find out some how.
I am glad that Benjamin Franklin did what he did to find out what electricity. else somebody might have tried to do that but died.
Isn’t it amazing how God created electricity or even something so powerful like lightning?
