Year 8 Admiral have the following question to answer as homework this week:
Historians say the Industrial Revolution occurred between 1780 and 1800, does your timeline support this theory? When do you think the industrial revolution occurred?
Students will need to study the timeline in their exercise books and include the answers to the following questions in their response:
- When did the majority of the inventions take place?
- How many were before 1780?
- How many happened after 1800?
- Are the inventions towards the end of the industrial revolution different to the ones towards the beginning? Or are they improvements on what has already been invented?
