Social Studies
Hazardous Factory Work During the Industrial Revolution
Writing prompt (type or write it right on the worksheet)
Why do you think children were allowed to work in factories during the time of the Industrial Revolution?
Notes:
Today our class had a field trip to the Microsoft Store in Roosevelt Field Mall. The class got to learn about how the store works and about some of the new products they have to sell. The class had a great time.
In Social Studies, we read about Hazardous Factory Work during the Industrial Revolution. Working in the factories of the Industrial Revolution was hazardous. The factory workers faced safety hazards, health hazards, and cruel treatment. Factory machines were the latest technology, and factory owners were anxious to get their machines up and running. Safety was not a major concern. Dangerous parts of machines were not screened off. Machines were not equipped with features to make them shut off in case of an accident. (EdHelper)
