Research Week #2

Our second week of research is over! I’ve finished investigating my other 3 questions: “How has paper changed over time?”, “What would life be like without paper?”, and “How did paper spread from China to all around the world?”. I have learned about the evolution of paper throughout different time eras, some of the uses and advantages of paper, and how it spread across the world.

Some things I had trouble with were getting enough research for each sub question and finding information on what life would be like without paper- I had to inference and come up with my own ideas a bit.

There were also some new things that I learned that surprised me. I never knew that paper was made insect resistant   in China when they made improvements to it. I also found out that paper didn’t spread through the arrival of Europeans in Asia as I thought it had, but rather the invention extended to Korea, Japan, Central Asia, and the Middle East before making it’s way to Europe.

Now that I’ve finished my research, I can start writing my paragraphs!
