This is lesson 9 in an 11 lesson sequence entitled “What do different inteperpretations tell us about the Industrial Revolution?”

This lesson uses videos and reading to teach students about the poor living conditions of the Industrial Revolution.
Key words - squalor, contaminated, cholera.
Students then use their knowledge to support what Emma Griffin said in her book “Liberty’s Dawn” - that the Industrial Revolution came at the cost to our environment and ultimately all living things.
