Lori 9


Hi Everyone
Here is my research on Sir Isaac Newton and my world drawing
if you want to learn about sir Isaac's Life click here ---> http://teachertech.rice.edu/Participants/louviere/Newton/newton.html
Sir Isaac Newton:
Isaac Newton was born in 1642 in a manor house in Lincolnshire, England. His father had died two months before his birth. When Isaac was three his mother remarried, and Isaac remained with his grandmother. He was not interested in the family farm, so he was sent to Cambridge University to study.
Isaac was born just a short time after the death of Galileo, one of the greatest scientists of all time. Galileo had proved that the planets revolve around the sun, not the earth as people thought at the time. Isaac Newton was very interested in the discoveries of Galileo and others. Isaac thought the universe worked like a machine.
Isaac first discovered gravity after he saw an apple fall from a tree.
Isaac also invented the reflecting telescope and a few other small toys
