<h1>🔎 Medieval Inventions Around You</h1>
<h2>Week 15 • Thursday • Old Ideas in Your Modern World</h2>
<section class="lesson-section">
<h3>📖 Reading Time</h3>
<div class="reading-box">
<p>Look around your house — the Middle Ages are hiding everywhere! Does anyone in your family wear <strong>glasses</strong>? Eyeglasses were invented in the Middle Ages. Is there a <strong>clock</strong> on your wall? Mechanical clocks began ringing in medieval towers.</p>
<p>Every book on your shelf exists because of the <strong>printing press</strong>. Buttons on your coat? A medieval idea! Even the <strong>wheelbarrow</strong> in the garden came from that time.</p>
<p>Wind power did not disappear either. Medieval windmills ground grain — today, giant <strong>wind turbines</strong> use the same idea to make electricity! Old inventions grow into new ones. Today you will hunt for medieval inventions in your own home.</p>
