Key terms

• Archeology is the study of life in the past by excavating artifacts. Archeology is very interesting to me. Archeologists have found things from billions of years ago from pots to dinosaur bones. Archeology affects my life because I am able to learn about the past and how we grew to where societies are today because of the study of life in the past. Archeology is very interesting because they never know what they are going to find or discover. It's like a huge guessing game.
• Immigration is the the when people move from one region to another. Immigration is important in my life because my ancestors were immigrants from Poland, Canada and many other countries. A majority of people in America have ancestors that have immigrated to America. When immigrants came to America they all lived in towns. These towns became into china towns and German towns. These places are visited today in America and are like visiting another country while in America.http://youtu.be/bJNFZ3a7fKY
• labor saving devices are devices that cut back on the amount of effort it took to complete a task. For example, a washing machine is a labor saving device because you don't have to wash the clothes the machine does. these devices are important to my life because I don't have to do chores all night long like they did back in the day. Other examples are coffee machine, and the vacuum cleaner.
• factories are places where products are mass made. Factories where very terrible and trecherouse places to work long ago because you had to work long hours and it was dangerouse because of the working conditions. Factories are important to me and others because instead if making products you need you can just go buy the product at a store.
• The space race was from 1957-1975 and was a race to space between America and the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union had the first man in space. America had the first man to land on the moon. It's important to my life because without the understanding of how space is Our technology would probably be less advanced. I think the space race is very interesting because it is still despised today about who actually won. http://youtu.be/FxpC-8f--xo
