    Very interesting timeline James and great choice of pictures showing a wide range of uses for the wheel. Next time, write an introduction to your Blog. For example, 'We are learning about inventions that changed the world, so here is some information about the invention of the wheel. You may be surprised to learn that the first wheel was used to make pottery.'
