Impact of the Industrial Revolution

Choose one person in this photograph, and write a journal entry about what a normal day in their life was like. If you like, you can imagine that one of the children is a girl, or you can include another member of the family that's not pictured such as a mother, or older sibling.

Be creative! Include what time they might wake up, the type of food they would eat, what kind of clothes they would wear, what work or school was like for them, other activities that would take up part of their day, how long their day is, what they might do for fun, the conditions of their house, school, or workplace, and anything else you think is related.

Your journal entry should be a page, double-spaced, with 12-point font.

Take a look at the worker interviews on The Victorian Web site if you need some ideas.
