You're right — this worksheet is asking you to
identify and describe communication tools from the past until today, and to
paste pictures (which you’d do physically or digitally) next to each description.
Since I can’t paste actual images, I’ll provide you with
4 clear examples of communication tools across time, including:
- A
brief description of how each was/used
- A
suggestion for what image to paste (you can search for these online or draw them)

✔ Tool 1: The Telephone (Late 1800s – Present)
📷 *Image suggestion:* Old rotary phone or modern smartphone
📝 *Description:* The telephone allows people to talk to each other over long distances using voice. Early phones needed operators, but now smartphones let us call, text, video chat, and access the internet—all in one device.

✔ Tool 2: The Telegram / Morse Code (Mid-1800s – Mid-1900s)
📷 *Image suggestion:* Telegraph machine or Morse code key
📝 *Description:* Before phones, telegrams sent messages as electrical signals using dots and dashes (Morse code). Operators would translate the code into written messages and deliver them by hand. It was fast for its time!

📷 *Image suggestion:* Envelope icon or computer screen showing email
📝 *Description:* Email lets people send written messages instantly over the internet. You type a message, add a recipient’s address, and click “Send.” It’s widely used for school, work, and personal communication.
