Albert Einstein
By, Logan 3/31/14
Albert Einstein
was born in Germany on March 14, 1879. Albert had a difficult time learning how to speak. Later in his life, he admitted that he would try
each sentence out on himself, and when it sounded right, he would say it out loud. He was kind of a loner and his only friend
was his sister Maja. As a kid, Albert
was very curious. He liked toys with wheels
on them and got inspired by a compass that his father showed Albert when he was
sick. The reason I chose to write about
Albert Einstein is because I wanted to learn more about him. (Plus, Elijah took Annie Sullivan (who was my
first choice)…)
One of Einstein’s best-known
accomplishments was to discover E=mc2, aka Theory of Relativity. Einstein won the Nobel Prize award for his
discoveries in physics. His discoveries
helped make the atomic bomb. He had hated
the idea of the atomic bomb but wanted the USA to make it before Germany did. To
help Einstein feel calm, would play the violin.
It was something he hated as a kid, but loved as an adult.
Albert was very
messy, quirky, and funny. For instance, one
time he pushed all the buttons in an elevator. Albert even taught a neighborhood kid to ride
a bike! His family nicknamed him “The Genius.” Even though he was wild, and had crazy hair
and dirty clothes, people thought he was very nice, and were happy about his accomplishments. He has been on many magazine covers. The way he changed America for the better is by
inspiring other scientists.
