Industrial Impact

Students read a nonfiction passage on the Industrial Revolution and construct a cause-and-effect chain that connects key developments and outcomes. They identify how innovations such as the steam engine and factory production reshaped economies, societies, and living conditions. By linking causes to their direct and indirect effects, students gain insight into historical processes and analytical organization.
