Today I saw a play about Thomas Alva Edison. It was a good play. My teacher said to us it
was a musical. My favorite part was when Thomas Edison saved little Jimmie. I liked when
he lit the lightbulb. I know that he invented electricity.

I saw a play about Thomas Alva Edison. It was very good because the old Thomas Edison
stayed on stage and there was a flashback. There was a young Thomas Edison and an old
Thomas Edison. They did a good job acting because they seemed like real people. I liked
the part when the young Thomas Edison did slow motion when he got hit. I liked another
part too. It was when he made electricity. We have been reading too about Thomas Alva
Edison. Maybe you can see a Thomas Alva Edison play or go and see his museum.

I saw a play about Thomas Edison. Did you see it too? In the play they did a flashback.
The flashback just bumped in. In the flashback old Tom stayed with young Tom. My favorite
part was when Tom invented the electric light.

I am going to tell about a play that was about Thomas Alva Edison. I like the part when he
sold the candy, newspapers, licorice and peanuts on the train. There was a funny part in
the show when he sat on the eggs. You would love to see the play. There is a museum with
all his inventions. If you like the biography of Thomas Alva Edison you would love the
play!

I saw a play about Thomas Edison. In the play was not much detail. There was a flashback
that got me confused because there were two Toms. When I got back we talked about the play
and Mrs. Taverna told us why there were two Toms. Now I know about the confusing parts. My
favorite part was when a man wore a funny wig and when a man pretended to be a lady. I
liked the play.

I saw a play about Thomas Alva Edison. I didn’t think it was a really good play
because they did not use different characters. Also because they had no background. But
the good part is that they did a flashback from when he was a man to when he was a kid.
The play was kind of a musical too! In the play Thomas’s friends made fun of him
because he was deaf. They showed him getting hurt in slow motion. If you like inventions
you should see this play.

I just saw a play about Thomas Alva Edison. I think there was not enough detail because
they almost used the same props through the whole play. My favorite part was when they
turned on the electric light. I also liked when they pretended to fight in slow motion. I
think you should see this play if you want to learn more about Thomas Alva Edison.

I am writing about the play. I am going to tell about the character. I like the part when
they built they built the railroad because Tom asked when it was going to be finished. I
know Tom invented electricity. When he was 84 he died.

flashback. They showed young Tom and old Tom. When he was young he got into a fight. They
showed the fight in slow motion. They showed him saving Jimmie in slow motion too. At the
end of the play he had invented the electric lightbulb.

I saw a play about Thomas Edison. I liked the part when Thomas saved the baby because the
lady was saying save my baby. If I were the writer I would have put in the part when his
laboratory got burned down because that was an important part.
Reviewed by Sammy
I saw a play about Thomas Edison. It is boring
because the actors were boring. I couldn't even solve it. None of the parts were good.
Reviewed by Sarah
I saw the play Thomas Alva Edison and I am going to tell you about it. Thomas invented
lots of things. He invented a phonograph, electric light and a movie. In the play they
showed how Thomas made the electric light. His friends helped him to make it. If you want
to know more about Thomas Edison you should see that play that I saw.

I saw a play about Thomas Alva Edison. They did slow motion. My favorite part was when
Thomas Edison connected the lightbulb. I also liked when he had a fight. You should go and
see it because it is a great play. I really wanted to be a character. There was a little
Thomas Edison and a big Thomas Edison.
