We'll
be setting up a couple of activities today, and we'll also be taking a
slight detour from our look at the Industrial Revolution and its
aftermath. We'll be back to that as our main topic for tomorrow.
HOMEWORK for tomorrow - Tuesday, October 6th
As a warmup, let's do this one that we didn't get to on Friday...
Charts and graphs and other things, Oh my! (That's a version of the "Lions, and tigers, and bears! Oh, my!" exchange from The Wizard of Oz...
Just thought you might want to know.) I've got five sheets containing
various styles and sorts of information. You'll get one of them, and
we'll share what we've got...
Industrial Revolution - Discussion
I
posted this on the website on Friday, but we didn't get to it.
Tomorrow, we'll host a discussion on a variety of topics related to the
Industrial Revolution. You will be assigned a role for this. Basically,
your "character" will be most involved in one of the three phases of
the discussion, and those phases will mirror the three DBQs:
beginnings, effects and responses. We'll draw for roles, and you'll
have some time today to get ready for this.
The Industrial Revolution: Beginnings
Jethro Tull (p. 717)
Robert Bakewell (p. 718)
John Kay (p. 718-719)
Eli Whitney (p. 720)
James Watt (p. 721)
Robert Fulton (p. 720)
John McAdam (p. 721)
Richard Trevithick (p. 721)
At
the beginning, you will be asked to briefly introduce yourself. We want
to know who you are and how you contributed to the Industrial
Revolution. (Figure around 1 minute or so.)
The Industrial Revolution: Effects
Elizabeth Caskell (p. 724)
William Cooper (p. 724/DBQ)
Ned Ludd (p. 726)
Michael Thomas Sadler (DBQ)
victim of cholera outbreak (p. 724)
Birmingham coal miner (p. 725)
Francis Cabot Lowell (p. 729)
Lucy Larcom (p. 730)
At
the beginning, you will be asked to briefly introduce yourself. We want
to know how you were affected by the Industrial Revolution, as well as
what you believe should be done.
The Industrial Revolution: Responses
Adam Smith (p. 724)
David Ricardo (p. 735)
Thomas Malthus (p. 735)
John Stuart Mill (p. 735)
Robert Owen (p. 736)
Charles Fourier (p. 736)
Karl Marx (p. 736)
Friedrich Engels (p. 736)
At
the beginning, you will be asked to briefly introduce yourself. We want
to understand your basic position, as well as what, if anything, you
believe should be done in response to the Industrial Revolution and its
effects.
You'll be provided with specific topics and questions for the rest of the discussion tomorrow.
Cartoons - Industrialization and Imperialism
In this assignment, you will produce two cartoons
of your own in editorial/political cartoon style. One will be on
industrialization (or a closely related issue) and one will be on
imperialism (or a specific example). These will both be due on Tuesday, October 20th.
Here are the guidelines:
- My preference is for each cartoon to be in black/color ink on 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper.
- You may use multiple panels, but most cartoons of this style are usually a single panel.
- Text on the cartoon may be typed (cut and paste) or hand-written, but must be legible.
- Your ideas are more important than artistic excellence, but there should be evidence of appropriate effort.
- You will be evaluated on adherence to topic, effectiveness of "message", creativity and execution.
If you want some additional samples, you might check these sites out:
- Today's Best Cartoons - This is Daryl Cagle's "Pro Cartoonist Homepage." You can find loads of current examples here.
- Editorial Cartoons - These are from www.comics.com
Migration - 19th Century People on the Move
We'll do a couple of quick activities here on the movements of people around the world in the 19th century.
Remember
that you may have identified "push" and "pull" factors that affected migration
patterns last year. We'll use that idea again today. In addition, we'll
take a look at the different types of migration.
- internal
- external
- chain
- temporary
You can work on getting ready for tomorrow's discussion with any remaining time...
Please
finish up your reading in Chapter 25 with Section 4, "Reforming the
Industrial World." (pp. 734 - 740) It's a longer section, and the
quiz will be fill-in-the-blank.
We will have
our Industrial Revolution - Discussion tomorrow. Remember that you have
an assigned role from which you will be speaking.
No
hurry to get started, but your Cartoons: Industrialization and
Imperialism assignment is due on Tuesday, October 20th. Directions are
above.
