VICTORIAN FAMILY TREE: LIFE DURING THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
What does the project consist of? In groups of 3, you will create a family tree of the society of this period. You may do it with Google drive or Prezzi, as a presentation or in Glogster (to have more space for the family tree).
The first person of the tree (on the top) will be the owner of the land or of the factory. So there are two types of projects, one about the farming and another one about the industry. We will share out the two subjects between the 9 groups.
In your presentation, you will differentiate between the family of the landowner/businessman and the people who work for him and their family. First, you will introduce each person, with a picture-photograph-drawing…and some basic and personal information: name, age, likings, job, living conditions, house life, family…
Then, each person will express a desire that characterizes them (as in a comic).
Don’t forget to make the relationship of each person with the landowner or the businessman very clear!!
In the groups each one has a work: one will be the coordinator (who organizes the presentation or digital poster and looks for the information), and the others will work on the family of the landowner/businessman and the family of his workers.
*ATTENTION, PLEASE!
This is a part of a common Bilingual Project that you will work in English and History lessons. So you should use the information that you have worked in them.
