Recently we spoke to Rachel, a teacher and a volunteer with an after-school education program for a very special group of kids. The students had been discussing the significance of science and technology to their lives, and in particular, the significance of different discoveries and how they have changed the world! Two of Rachel’s students found this great page and brought in for the class see about "the wheel" and how it revolutionized the world! - https://store.intellaliftparts.com/c/history-of-the-wheel.html Keep up the great work kids and keep learning!
