Today, we checked our time travelling suitcase and discovered a mystery photograph and light bulb.  As a class, we decided that this was part of our mission that William Gibson had set for us in a letter.  We used the clues to discover that the photograph was a picture of Thomas Edison and that he invented the light bulb as well as many other items.

Some of the children decided to write a response to Mr Gibson.  This is Elizabeth’s letter:

Dear William Gibson, 

We have found some facts about a famous inventor called Thomas Edison and he created the light bulb.  Oh, by the way Thomas Edison was born in 1847 and he sadly died in 1931.

Yours Sincerly.

Elizabeth

As a class, we have placed Elizabeth’s letter in the suitcase and we are awaiting further missions.
