Bubble TREE Art and Writing By Geraleigh Holter
Participating in art has taught me the importance of planning. Before I sketch, I plan what I want to do. This same concept can be used in writing. Writing has a prewrite stage in which you plan what you want to write only using words instead of pictures.

Nikola Tesla I was inspired to draw Nikola Tesla because he was a famous Inventor from my country., Seberia. Now know as Croatia.
Ines Grba 8th Grade
Brief FACTS Nikola Tesla developed the alternatingcurrent electrical system that's is still used today, and discovered the rotating magnetic field (found in most AC machinery). He came to the United States in 1884, and briefly worked with Thomas Edison before the two parted ways. He sold several patent rights, including those to his alternatingcurrent machinery, to George Westinghouse. His 1891 invention, the "Tesla coil," is still used in radio technology today.
